I watched my 5 year old learn the fine art of the cannonball in the swimming pool. I even told her it's not an official cannonball unless you yell the word "cannonball!!" right before you jump in.

I made 12 pints of cherry jam from the cherries I picked a few days ago. Then I had pasta with fresh-picked green beans, chard, and some pesto I made Sunday. Love that the garden is producing now! Picked the first ripe tomato today and it looks like one zucchini is about ready.
pagan_idolator 2 years, 12 months ago
Ohhh - cherry jam sounds so delish.

Celebrate?! Summer can make like a tree and get out of here. I don't like feeling like I'm going to melt as soon as I step outside. Can we fast forward to October, please?

I wonder how Hilda has time to take a vacation between writing LTEs in support of every faux progressive tax and feel good public initiative. I wonder if she took the T?
