Also made some 'refrigerator pickles' ala Oxner - (jelly jar in foreground). They were so tasty {Thanks Bill!!}, I went ahead and canned a few quarts (background) for long-term storage!

Finally. Taste better than it looks. The jagged edges edges were caused by the watermelon popping wide open when I stuck the point of the knife in. You know the feeling when you cut a vine ripened watermelon. Going to make some my neighborhood children happy.

I will plant a different verity if I plant watermelons again. Theses were sweet enough but as much rind as meat.

I can go to the store and buy any produce except home grown tomatoes. I still plant cucumbers and peppers just to fill out my row. I no longer grow a fall garden. I just finished taking down my cages. Its at least 95° out there.

The tiller started on the first pull. The soil was a little too gummy but I went ahead and tilled anyway. Pass the Benadryl cream please.

Those big tomatoes are what I call cat face tomatoes. They are great on sandwiches. They cover the whole slice of bread.

Rain. Just in time to soften up my garden and till it. Should be great foe an early of volunteer cilantro. I was looking for cilantro bur. took a peek and found little biddy cucumber plants. I had grown two differently verities. Won't know which one this one is until when or if it produces. I'm not too concerned. I can make more icebox pickles with either, or slice them, with some store bought vegetables for my marinated salad.

This is my favorite thread. I putt the dripper back on my volunteer cucumbers as you can see, they are doing fine. Plan to transplant to a couple of hills when and if we get a cool down.
