Half an hour ago I was digging potatoes and picking peas; on my way back to the house I grabbed a handful of chantrelle mushrooms that grow wild, next to my driveway. Now all that's left of the meal is the dirty dishes. I wouldn't give this up for the best penthouse in NYC.

I know my garden is later than most; what are you picking for supper tonight?

Today's lunch from the garden was leaf lettuce, pickled red beets and green onions with a few raw green peas. Need to pick peas tomorrow, I hope the rain today has filled them out.

I've got stuffed green peppers in the oven right now and tomorrow I'll be making a zucchini casserole.:drool:

Did you get much rain down there? We've had a few showers, but I'm still waiting for the deluge. A good rain is all I need to be overwhelmed with peas; but I'll be gone all week so probably will miss them.

See ya

We had one good downpour that lasted about 3 minutes this morning and nothing but drizzle and light rain since. Less than 1" total and according to the weather forecast, not much more in the offing. Along the coast and Downeast it looks better for you this evening.

We have been really dry here all Spring. My garden would be nothing without hose watering every couple days. This heat did make some growth in the sweet corn and tomatoes.

Hope you get some rain. But you are right, the peas will come quickly if you do.
Dave.

You're making me hungry again. ;)

My peppers are rather anorexic... but I've got Maine shrimp in the freezer, just waiting for the zucchini & summer squash.

Can I come to your house for dinner tomorrow?
:laughing:
