WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING
















While you were sleeping Quinn, we snuck (don't think this word will make it into the OED!) into the garden to pick some tomatoes and visit the herbs and plants. It is our first attempt to grow garlic this year and we had quite good success. This little clove went into making a beautiful hummus for our dinner.
It is amazing how the garden changes. The herb garden has passed our wildest expectations and has grown and filled out to completely cover the eye-shaped space. The borage we planted from seed on June 24th is humongous...meaty leaves and beautiful blossoms that attract the bees.

Elizabeth could spend the whole day in the garden making friends with caterpillars and leaves alike. We enjoy our sneaky forays into the garden, thanks Quinn.
