Life is Good

The day started off with this delicious Summertime breakfast:


I couldn't help myself from digging in the fingerling bed last night to see how things were coming along:


The remaining Cipollini Onions and were pulled and set aside to dry:


Tomatoes are cracked from the heavy rains, but providing a nice harvest each day:


Today we went blueberry picking:


The farmer was as sweet as could be.  I must return again for more berries, and a Christmas Tree!


And speaking of sweet, the honeybees were all abuzz:


We left when our basket was full, the 9 pounds of berries will stock the freezer well:


The ride home included stops for lunch, ice cream (for the kiddos), 
blackberries, raspberries, green beans, and corn.


What a great day we had.  Life is good.

Great job picking! We were only able to get about 3 lbs before the kids (and I) gave up in the heat. We'll be back next week to resume the process!

Sounds like a day well spent. I like your new wallpaper and header picture...those are some big garlic!

It seems like we're eating tomatoes for breakfast, lunch and dinner these days. I can't complain though. The season will be over before we know it.

I could totally go for some blueberry crisp right about now!

Also, those fingerlings look amazing!
