I'm so happy that Mara and I got an early and eager start in planting our veggies this season. Now is the time we sit back and reap the bennies! and berries! Our radishes are coming in so quickly that we can hardly keep up eating them. Now it's artichokes, snow peas and raspberries. Well I'm certainly not going to complain about that because having fresh picked raspberries for breakfast and then artichokes for dinner can't be beat! This is also a good time to start making bottles of raspberry vinaigrette, so I'll get my bottles ready this weekend for production. The unseasonably hot weather helped the tomatoes and snow peas kick in nicely. I'm even seeing little figs on the hardy Celeste tree I brought down to the garden since it wasn't producing on my patio. One thing for sure is we'll be well fed this summer, and that's a good thing since gas prices are sending us to the poorhouse!

I am so jealous! Raspberries are my favorite berry--I can never get enough. And to be getting all this in May. All that is in my garden--because I am lazy and, I hope, moving, is some volunteer Italian parsley (whatever that is) and weeds. Beautiful pictures, too.
there are plenty raspberries waiting for you this weekend!! of course you will have to pick them yourself which i know you will enjoy!
hey bring some of those to vegas...ha
