It's only been this past week that we've had enough for two. Before that it was just a bite for each of us.<br /><br />********<br />Emily, I found several tiny tomatoes today. I even found a couple on one of my Cherokee Purple plants! I'm really looking forward to trying those and the Sungold.<br /><br />********<br />Christina, it cooled down again today!

When I'm bringing in 20-30 pounds of tomatoes a day, and wondering what to do with it all, I won't love it so much ;-)<br /><br />********<br />Dan, I'm afraid I'm headed for lettuce overload.

I have him hanging in the kennel garden, and I'm thinking the breeze makes him turn and the kennel posts create the illusion of movement....but it's really the owl moving. Did that make sense? LOL<br /><br />I have the day neutral strawberries, so my harvest is never large, but it just keeps getting better through the season, right up until it freezes. I sometimes wish I'd planted the June bearing, and had a nice big harvest all at once.Annie*s Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772261218172078099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597627580631284872.post-56651100324432585242010-06-14T20:54:12.325-07:002010-06-14T20:54:12.325-07:00So is the owl like the singing bass fish wall hang...So is the owl like the singing bass fish wall hanging thing? Annoying as all get out and kind of scarey?! LOL! I hope his hoo hoo starts working soon and he does the trick for you on protecting the garden. ;)<br /><br />Great harvest week for you! Love the strawberry and baby spinach salad. My strawberries are so late this year that I have no chance of following your lead and doing the same - as the spring spinach has gone by already and the strawberries are just green bumps at the moment.kitsapFGhttp://www.modernvictorygarden.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597627580631284872.post-57924566886337296042010-06-14T20:01:24.534-07:002010-06-14T20:01:24.534-07:00Poor Cilantro :(

If they last that long ;-)<br /><br />********<br />Villager, that temperature is quite normal for our area, which usually sees 100-112 by the end of July. We're actually back down in the 70s again today, and expecting to stay there all week. My favorite temperature!<br /><br />If your hoo-hoo ever gets stuck, I'll bet you'll figure out a way to fix it real quick ;-)<br /><br />********<br />Meredith, that strawberry-spinach salad was the best of the year.

That's why I use all of them I can, at every stage of growth, from small scallions, then salad onions, and finally larger ones to dry.<br /><br />********<br />Ribbit, I can't even remember the last time my hoo-hoo worked. Yes, it's been that long ;-)<br /> <br />********<br />Momma_S, I was just letting that cilantro grow and blossom for the birds. I do NOT like cilantro. The small amount I use in my salsa can be purchased for 39-cents at the local Mexican market. I sure thought it looked pretty in the garden, though. It had started to set seed, and when my son moved it, the seeds went flying everywhere. I suppose I'll be growing more cilantro, like it or not ;-)Annie*s Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772261218172078099noreply@blogger.com
