July 28th, 2007 - One local summer (I have no idea what week it is)

Just had my local dinner tonight: local made summer sausage and veggie munster cheese along with a couple carrots from the garden. It was a yummy, easy to fix, cool meal for a summer night. And of course local milk to drink.

It’s a good thing I wandered a bit in the garden this morning. I found quite a few Thumbelina carrots were larger than they should have been, thnned some other carrots, discovered the first three lemon cucumbers, realized the rain did a wonderful job growing Yugoslavian finger fruit (they were tiny one week ago and huge today), and last but not least got my first zucchini before it became a boat.

I also picked more beans (still have preserved them–intend to free them in the morning) and dug the last of the garlic. Just heard about garlic soup this morning–will have to try that out when the weather cools off.
