The cabbage is so huge right now! It seems like it’s all leaves at this point, though. I can feel a tiny little head in the center so I just need to be patient. It does make me wonder about the suggested days to harvest one sees on seed packets. I am pretty sure I have gone far, far, longer than the day range suggested on about almost everything. (I’m looking at you “ultra-early” tomatoes.)

We have officially entered The Season of the Zucchini. Pinterest has a TON of ideas for recipes I need to sift through. No wasting this year!

These pink California poppies are one of my favorite things about the garden this year, I like them so much better than the bright orange poppies you see everywhere. I went on a poppy seed buying spree the other day after reading a post about poppies on A Way to Garden.  I’ve also had two poppies come up in my raspberries that I did not plant…birds, perhaps? It made me so happy…it was like a little gift.
