Garden oddities: zucchini the size of a calf, intricate unlockable puzzle pieced carrots, sunflowers that herald the call of Timber!

These days I am still appreciating the green: our grass is rich, our peony bushes are only starting to fade, the hydrangea still blooming, the raspberry bush flush. I tried and failed at a raspberry crumble recipe, in hopes to bring it with me to class tonight. Something about the vegetable shortening; the taste is prevalent and strange.

I'm beginning to progressively more comfortable where I am. And tomorrow, Tuesday, blessed day of getting-caught-up: mowing the lawn, scrubbing the sills of the front porch, reading and writing.
