beeting the heat. wow, i didn't know i could be so lame.




first post solstice post:
it's f-ing hot. lucky for me we have air conditioning and water. the garden has recently been spotted with a visitor that i have identified as a groundhog. he is most definitely unwelcome, as i find carrot tops missing occasionally. although, i didn't mind him snacking on some bolting lettuce, however, i fear for his life if rickey ever comes across his fat, furry body.
looks as if the garlic is ready for drying. after pulling the pea trellis, we used it to dry a few cloves for storage.
the beets have been fantastic. the most recently harvested were roasted on the grill. they store very well in the fridge, and have been pulled out for occasional salads. the photo above features the roasted chiccoggas with goat cheese in a homemade honey balsamic dressing.
