peach, originally uploaded by sx70manipulator. I have been loving the peaches this summer. I have one almost every night.

Lucy from the Drinkable Garden (isn’t that the coolest idea ever?) has been kind enough to give us some instruction on how to grow your own hops. ——————————————————————– We’re not ones for travel guides and tourist maps so it stands to reason our hop growing adventure is also unplanned and self taught.

This morning was a morning for cocktails. I don’t mean I got up at 7am and started drinking. Though I might not always decline a mimosa or Bloody Mary when offered (yes, please!), I’m generally not much for the wake-and-partake. Well, OK, I’ll admit: after 10am, all bets are off. But today I wasn’t drinking…
The vegetable beds are beginning to open up now that we’ve taken out all of our peas (after saving the seed of course), and almost all of our garlic and lettuce (waiting for lettuce seed). The chard is bolting so hopefully it won’t be too long before we get seed from that and are able…
