In the swing of summer

Britt found Millie a pool.  She mostly likes to get in and get out again, but when she's really hot, she'll lie down in it.

In the meantime, Sam and I have been doing a lot of work on the garden and building up our list of fun plants around the house.

Garden:
Hops (four varieties)
Tomatoes (four varieties)
Cucumbers (two varieties)
Romanesque (fancy broccoli)
Eggplant (two varieties)
Soybeans (edamame)
Okra
Turnips
Tomatillos (two varieties)
Lettuce (various)
Dragontongue beans
Snow peas
Snap peas
Eden's Gem Melons
Volunteer squash (probably Delicata)
Hot peppers (five varieties)
Basil
Cilantro

Other edibles:
Rhubarb
Red raspberries
Black currents
Blueberries (new this year!)
Rosemary
Sage
Pineapple sage
Tarragon
Thyme
Oregano
Lemongrass
Mint (so much mint!)
Chives
Alpine strawberries

And all sorts of random flowers.  It's been a productive spring.
