In my last post I mentioned we had finally received some rain - that 1/2" ended up being 4" over 5 days and was well received - the weather continued hot and windy and the moisture disappeared very quickly. This past weekend saw a cold front come through - we arose two mornings to 10C - going from 33C to 10C is quite a ride. ^^
This year we harvested our very first zucchini at the cabin - usually they all abort - wasn't sure whether to preserve this one or eat it - nah, it was an easy choice to eat it! I stirfried it with onions, garlic, mushrooms and chard (fresh from the garden) - yummo!
The buttercup squash is on steroids - one of the vines has taken off through the bush and is heading towards the road - for now we'll let it wander and see how far it goes. I was surprised at the shape of these squash - then I realized I had purchased buttercup seeds rather than butternut - it's interesting being my age. ^^
Hum (the hummingbird) is enjoying the scarlet runner bean - it's growing up the side of the verandah about six feet from the hummingbird feeder - it's most enjoyable watching the Hums visit all the flowers and then sit and take a long drink from the feeder. ^^
I've been crocheting for Fall - any guesses about what I might be making - they're mini - it's not much of a hint. ^^
