Greetings from mid-weekend! I know! How awesome is that!
Some things to perk up your Monday:
- The Four Day Sweater KAL is in full swing – and Mary is just cruising along! Go, Mary, Go! I am beyond the Great Sweater Divide and will resume knitting on Thursday when Steve heads off for a 3-day work function. Yes, there is a method to me dividing up my time! LOL
- Speaking of Mary, she shared this lovely tidbit with me this morning! Yes, I’m still with her – and really, can we all be in a book club together? Perhaps new rules for Presidential candidates should include their reading list, and if they don’t have one – they are automatically disqualified!
- I have picked 7 zucchinis, 10 cucumbers, and up today is the first bean harvest!! Gardening FTW!
- We had some early sweet corn for dinner last night and yes, it was so delicious!
That is all I have for this Mon-turday! Except this, Monday I think this should be your new plan going forward – BE SATURDAY!
Hahahaha!!!! I would love EVERY to be a Mon-turday!!!!! How awesome would THAT be?????
I am a bit bitter that I am at work today (we get out a little early, but still). I so would have liked a four-day weekend!
I think my garden may be a dud this year. The only thing that seems to be growing well is my herb pot. My tomato plants are getting larger but show no signs of flowers. And my cucumber plants have a bunch of flowers but no fruit. And the poor little broccoli plant that my daughter was given at Phipps earlier in the year has been completely chewed up by bugs.
Now I see the method to your madness! 🙂 I love Hilary’s reading list, just like I enjoyed many on Obama’s list: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/18/books/president-obamas-reading-list.html?_r=0 I don’t think that other guy has a list.
We won’t have string beans for a few weeks, and no zucchini or cucumbers yet, either. Way to go with the garden!
Our garden is far, far behind yours! Hilary and I have very similar tastes. I’ve read many of the books on her list and I’m adding some of the others. Thank you to you and to Mary.
I haven’t picked anything yet but we will have summer squash soon. I’m still with Hillary, too, and I agree that any candidate without a reading list should be automatically disqualified!
Hooray for picking already . WOW. Im impressed. Young vegetables are so tender anyhow, the zucchini will be great!
aw, thanks for the cheers!!! YES YES YES to #2 (oh, along with their tax returns, too #amiright?) I’m totally planning to start the Charles Todd series now that I’ve seen in on her list. Congrats on the harvest – I’ll bet it’s delicious! Happy 4th!
Doesn’t matter that the other guy doesn’t read…neither I daresy does the “base.”
Congrats on all your garden success.
Cheers~
Yes. Hilary has great taste in books! (But didn’t you already know she would???) Your garden harvest is TOPS! I don’t plant vegetables anymore (my garden is kind of . . . not set up well for veggies; I used to grow some in containers, but the yield was not usually worth the effort), but my herb garden is doing GREAT. I love just running out to snip fresh herbs when I’m cooking. Happy 4th! 🙂
