Steve, you need to grow Petit Gris de Rennnes. I've already harvested 7 and they are so juicy, flavorful, and sweet. Saving seeds to give away. They were bred for short season and cool summers. Although not sure if you have cool summers like we do. Mary

Mid 70s for the next few days. That's hot here! Mary

SPedigrees, I was so disappointed in the size of Candyland that I think I threw away the rest of the seeds. Just too small for my taste. Mary

Louis is giving me a run for my money! lol. @baymule may invite him to design her gardens instead of me. Those are gorgeous. Mary

It is 80* today! Which is a heatwave for us. Good thing we have a window ac unit that keeps our bedroom very pleasantly cooled. It's where I read and watch tv so spend plenty of time there. Mary

Bay, please don't cancel August cause that's my birthday month. Mary

Last year Praire Fire did really well for me. It's sweet and pretty! Actually all of my tomatoes did really well like Black Krim, Japanese Triefle, Dr. Whycee's Yellow, Terra Cota, and Berkeley Tie Dye. This year none of them are doing as well. Part of the problem is that I moved them...

Major, did you go back to work full time or part time? Thought you had retired. Mary

Had my coffee with collagen and cranberry walnut sourdough toast with peanut butter. Along with cottage cheese and watermelon. My usual breakfast. Decided since I was too full to workout to go work in the garden instead. Working on a flower bed. Cleared out some Japanese anemone that were...

Welcome from the San Francisco bay area. Do you plan on getting chickens? They are a wonderful addition to have. I have 4 hens and quite a number of fruit trees and veggies in my small city garden lot. Mary
