Its Monday, and its another beautiful day.  The weekend was gorgeous,  low 80’s with a breeze.  The weeks just past have each had a progression of both cool and hot days.  Occassionally we get some rain, but for the most part its been pretty dry.  The forecast for the coming week is for higher than normal temperatures, possibly in the tripple digits.  I’m not going to be happy about that.

The sweet peas are still covered with flowers and smell fabulous.  The red leaf lettuce is probably no longer useable.  Not only have the plants bolted but the remaining leaves are wilting and rotting from underneath.  The kohlrabi bulbs have grown to gigantic proportions.  I’m still harvesting them but spend more time peeling the outer skin before cooking,  just in case.  I haven’t really noticed any change to woodiness.  Lots of green tomatoes, but only a couple are actually starting to color now.  The zuchini is growing like gangbusters and so is the spaghetti squash.  Had both for dinner over the weekend.  I’ll need to find a recipe for zuchini bread soon to make use of the enormous five pound zuchini’s that were tucked away under leaves and allowed to grow beyond their optimal size.
