I took my eye off of the eggplant and this morning found one in there the size of the large grocery store ones. I think the main difference this year is that the sunflowers nearby are attracting the pests that usually bother the eggplants. I think I'll use this one in a big lasagna. :)

This yard work in the heat has taken a toll. I felt like I was coming down with a bladder infection this morning. I think I haven't been drinking enough water, so today I'm letting it wash through the system. I have a couple of friends who have ended up with kidney stones from getting too dehydrated while out mowing (as a regular summer job). Gotta pay attention to the body's early warning signs.
