Rain sweet rain

The title says it all. We finally received some rain yesterday evening and some more today. What a relief from all the hot weather we have ben experiencing. Don't get me wrong I love the hot weather of summer , but enough is enough . It's not even June yet and 90ish seems to be the norm lately. That took care of my watering for a day or so.LOL. I truly enjoy watering the vegetables; especially the tomatos which when the water hits them takes me back to my childhood in Florida. I remember my family going out in the fields to pick bushels full. My grandmother always had them and other vegetables canned up and ready for anything. It's amazing how just the smell of the plants can bring back all those great memories. I; like her; will be trying my hand at canning this year and the rest will go in the freezer so we want for nothing this winter. I can't wait to get started . If you had told me a few years ago that I would be this excited about gardening ; I probably would have laughed at the comment. But now that I have had the chance to really dig my hands in and get this thing going; I can't see myself doing anything else.

Well , that's all for today. Guess I need to get out and enjoy this beautiful weather while I can. The dog days of summer are on the way. Hope everyone has a great Memorial Day weekend and don't forget to visit our website to register for $15.00 in fresh produce to be given away.
