Sowing Seeds

I have been in a bad mood lately. I am blaming it on the heat. It was 102 degrees yesterday. You read that correctly - ONE HUNDRED TWO DEGREES. And today is supposed to be another scorcher. My central air is having trouble keeping up with the unbearable heat. Honestly, I am having trouble keeping up with the unbearable heat. I just want to lay on the couch, drink lemonade, and read a book. Why aren't my kids more accommodating?

Although I hate the summer because of the oppressive heat, I love growing vegetables in my little garden. It almost makes summer bearable. Almost. Here is a little perview of the veggies/herbs we will be harvesting over the next few months...

Thyme

Cilantro

watermelon

carrots

tomatoes

We also have onions, potatoes, eggplant, and sweet peas growing. YUM! I can't wait!

When it gets this hot, just remember back to February 5th & 6th. 3 frickin feet of snow. I would rather sweat & be hot than be cold.

I think we're all being punished by all this damn heat. There isn't any reason for it to be this damn hot and butsting sweat just walking to the car at 7am. Imagine what our electric bill will be... OMG!

Your garden looks great! You go girl with your green thumb self.
