Tomorrow, another visit with the oncologist to see what the results of the testing say – hopefully, there will be results and this won’t be another trip into town for nothing. Today, though: planning. Planning for next season and next year. This afternoon, I managed a tour around the rear garden to see the pitiful state [...] I am certain that my half dozen faithful readers are wondering what cliff I fell off, given my complete lack of maintenance here on ye olde blog front. What, they ask, is she doing? Lolling around, eating bonbons, instead of planting things, cooking goodies, and the like? I’m not much on bonbons. At least for myself, [...] If you were not here for the big bash, you not only missed the pleasure of my company – what’s not to love about the cook, after all? – but you also missed out on on a good time and all of this.

The latter are unlikely to make it, as today was yet another 90+ degree day., and the trend looks to be continuing through the week. I had originally intended these frames to hold the corn once more, and had carried [...] I pulled the peas today – both the sugar snaps and the snow peas. It’s difficult to pull up plants that you’ve fed and watered and looked after and babied for months, but you do have to know when it is time (or past time) to take them out and send them on their way to [...] I’ve said before that I could eat thanksgiving dinner every meal and be happy. There’s just something rather comforting about a nice plate. This one, for instance. In a way, it’s one of those true southern meals: meat and three.
