I was away in California for a week and came back to more flowers in bloom and lots of weeds. So I've spent the past few days weeding and weeding. My flowers in bloom now are tall phlox, cosmos, germander, calamint, zinnias, bachelor buttons, guara (my new favorite). The boltonia is almost ready to bloom. I picked my first beets and made a cold buttermilk soup with them. I've been eating lots of swiss chard too. My tomatoes have fruit on them as well as the peppers. The veggie garden looks good and I've got a day off this week so I'll spend it there doing more weeding! Stacey in DC __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
