Restoration supper tonite…. live from NYC…
Another stellar day… 77°F… low humidity… light breeze feeling delightful on the skin… mama robin is now feeding her babies… haven’t been lucky enough to get a glimpse… yet… trying… she is bringing food to the nest… bending her head down… giving it to a waiting mouth… also sitting up much higher… apparently her babies are getting bigger. So exciting… hoping for some peeks in the next days.
Iced coffee 🧋and a mini wrap out on the deck… the hubs enjoying his hot cup ☕️ with a mini wrap as well… Mr Sam stretched out in the shade guarding the greenhouse door… eyeing us as we munch our food… hoping for a taste (of course he finally DID get some turkey… such a spoiled puss 😸 we have created)
Spent time in the greenhouse today… tomatoes up to the ceiling… cucumbers covering the back wall… nasturtiums climbing onto the cucumbers for support… found two baby tomatoes… marble size… so excited to see them… pepper plants growing fast… gave away three of eight plants to our sweet neighbors today… hoping they enjoy them… the blackberry brambles have taken root in the back of the herb garden… thrilled to think in a couple of years we will have fruit 😁
All seven garlic cloves have grown into 15” high scapes… does anyone know if scapes can be cut and continue to grow… like chives? And if I cut them… will they still grow a bulb at the end of the summer?
Supper tonite… took out ground beef to make beef stroganoff… somehow the time flew by and suddenly it was getting late… and so… burger night 🍔 along with fresh cut corn 🌽 red pepper and peas sautéed in olive oil salt and pepper… cooked up quickly while the hubs grilled the burgers and warmed the buns… honeydew 🍈 peach 🍑 blueberry 🫐 fruit salad was made… but not eaten… too full from supper… perfect for tomorrow.
Had family over after supper for a fire 🔥 on the deck… so pleasant to sit outside… have coffee… tea… apple pie 🥧(which they brought from our favorite bakery) relax… tell stories… and laugh… something so very basic… sorely missed during the pandemic 🥰
This coming Sunday is Fathers Day… a special day set aside to celebrate how special Dads are in our lives… if you are still fortunate enough to have your Dad don’t miss the opportunity to share your love with him ❤️
Covid delta variant is fast becoming the dominant strain here in the US… percentage of cases doubling every two weeks… please make that appointment and #GetYourJabOn For those millions of Americans who have skipped your second dose… the efficacy of your vaccine against the Delta variant drops from 83% to just over 35% without your second dose… please take care of yourself and get your second jab… not vaxxed?
