Summer is flitting by- but some milestones are here- snap peas, lettuce, flowers blooming, the weeds are overwhelming. It's getting under control, slowly, I had a day without the kids this week- and it was amazing how much stuff I got done- I kept looking at the clock and thinking that time was moving in slow motion. It's heartening to know that one day I'll actually be able to look after this enormous garden. This year things are not pretty- I think it'll still produce enough food and all that- but it's not super photogenic, except in the close ups. Hope your summer gardens are going well- or even just your summer is going well- I'll try to post a bit more frequently- until then- cheers!
The macro shots are just stunning. Also the ones of the kids really capture everything that is wonderful about a garden in the summer.

ReplyDeleteWith vegetable gardens, the proof is in the pudding...so to speak. Or more fully,
ReplyDeletethe proof of the garden is in the eating : )
