What's Growin' On: 6/22/06


Fried Food--Still In Shock View


Letting Out A Muffled Cry View

Realization Of The Day:
Oriole Orange chard, Nero di Toscana cabbage, and basil don't like it when you cover them with a deer deterring plastic tarp for the night and then forget about the tarp until late the next day--especially when it is 90 degrees and very, very sunny outside.

Blogger is not cooperating today, and neither is my dial-up connection. As I mentioned on Monday, I have all kinds of interesting posts lined up, but for now I guess I'd better head back outside. Too bad--blogging usually gives me a great excuse to hide out from the heat in my little office (which is the only air-conditioned room in the house). Hmmm. Looks like I'd have to sign off anyway, as I just spotted wayward Martha and her twins in the hayfield, and some very loud, non-stop thunder has begun. Maybe it will cool down and we'll get some much needed rain.

  3. I thought when I saw the pictures that you'd had a late frost -- still all-too-possible (although by now unlikely) here in Scotland. How remarkably similar is the effect!

    Thanks for a great blog.

  4. Oh, no! I would be sobbing, too, if this happened to me. Is anything salvageable? Can you rescue any basil leaves?

  5. I apologize for laughing, but this sounds so much like something I would do. I really enjoy reading your blog!

  6. Hey did your cabbage and basil ever come out of their burn?

March 2013 update: My apologies for the inconvenience - I know word verification is a pain - but I've had to turn it on to help stop the ridiculous number of anonymous spam comments I've been getting every day. Thanks for your understanding.

Welcome to InMyKitchenGarden.com! Thanks so much for taking the time to write. While I'm not always able to reply to every comment, I receive and enjoy reading them all.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated, and I especially love to hear about what's going on in your own garden. I know, too, that other readers also delight in reading about your garden successes, failures, helpful tips, and lessons learned. Feel free to leave comments on older posts!

I try my best to answer all questions, but sometimes it takes me a few days to get to them. And sometimes, I'm sorry to say, they fall through the cracks, and for that I sincerely apologize.
