I found two beautiful tennis-ball-sized tomatoes hiding in the bushes today. Most of it is tucked in underneath, not much new fruit with this heat.
I've been in and out all day; it's 95 now, not much wind. I did spend a couple of hours on the phone helping a friend get a virus out of his computer. I've soaked an area where I plan to dig out the grass and put down newspapers and mulch, to keep a lot of the weeds from creeping back into the garden. And tomorrow in the morning first thing after the dog walk I'm going to trim and then mow. It has to be early now, or else by streetlight.
The kitchen is looking good, I've brewed a couple of jars of tea to keep in the fridge. One is my green tea with lemon balm, the other is a commercial quart bag of peach tea. I have some black beans I cooked and I'll add to a taco mix this evening (I have to grind the meat and such, and I'll use mostly my own veggies for the dish.) If my daughter can come by tomorrow I'll make a loaf of bread and we'll have our traditional first BLT of the summer sandwiches again. Mmmmmm!
I am spending some time in the house these days - and I'm experimenting with these new LED lights. I picked up one last month, a bright white one, and when I put it in the fixture on the fan in my office, I found it too bright (bluish). I moved that to the sun room fixture, and this month I bought a warm light (both are 40 watt equivalent bulbs). They're supposed to last for 15 - 20 years and cost next to nothing to run. Right now they cost about $17 - 20 each to buy. I need to keep receipts, they count off on the taxes. I suppose if I bought one a month I'd have a couple of hundred dollars for an energy tax credit.
