Last Thursday morning's walk through the vineyards with Callie. It didn't take long for those clouds to melt away.
The vegetable garden enjoyed the heat; it gave the plants a little push and they're looking good. The beans are producing and we're within a few days of the first harvest.
We've had exactly the same here in England - it's getting a tad frustrating! August next week and it doesn't feel like summer has happened at all.
ReplyDeleteThe weather really has been odd. I am hoping that we will have a late winter as my vegetable garden is so late. We started picking beans early in the week and now we have masses so I have to think about bottling. I found last year's bottled beans were so much nicer than frozen. have a good week Diane
ReplyDeleteI wondered what the Olympics coverage is like in France. Here, we have it on about 5 stations throughout the day -- it seems like any of the stations owned by NBC. We had good coverage of cycling, tennis, women's volleyball, men's gymnastics, and swimming, and something else, too-- El was watching last night, but I went to bed :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your lovely weather... we woke up to light RAIN!!!!!! The first time in a month, other than one or two very, very brief downpours. Ahhhhhhhhhhhh :)
Except for the damned commercials, the Olympic coverage here has been pretty good. I was very disappointed with the outcome of the men's bike race, and at the same time, I was happy for Vinokourov.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely landscape! So envious!
ReplyDeleteI love late summer.
ReplyDeletesharon, it's getting a bit old, isn't it?
ReplyDeletediane, I've had good luck with blanching and freezing.

starman, commercials drive me nuts, even more than the programming that interrupts them.
