Wednesday...

My reading assignment is read (finally, but with no help from noisy coworkers at lunch or noisy family at night) and my take-home quiz is complete! I turned in an essay on Monday and have another one due this Monday. Not much time to write, rewrite, and finalize an essay but, that is what this accelerated summer class is all about. Besides, I have a great topic for my 'personal experience' essay and it should be a breeze once I add in the details.

Here is the status on my broccoli. It finally sprouted heads but I could tell before they got out of 'tiny-wee' stage that they were going to flower before I could eat them. I took these pictures last night and by 7am this morning, the first one had flowered already. The 2nd one was still tight enough that I picked it and took it to work to have as part of my lunch. I missed it for lunch, so it will now be my entire dinner, as I ate my dinner for lunch {sigh}.

This last picture is my zukes, growing next to the tomatoes in the side bed. I'm not sure why two are doing so much better than the one on the far left. They were all planted at exactly the same time from exactly the same seeds... c'est la vie! It is what it is...

How could I almost forget to add that I spotted my first Bennings Green summer squash last night?? Honestly, where is my head.... Heaven's to murgatroid!!
