We ought to have a lot of huge, killer tomatoes from all this rain and heat but I am very concerned about some of the rest of the vegetables. I really am worried that many of them will rot right in the ground. Makes one appreciate the times we live in, where we can just run to the store. Of course, the whole idea, at least with us, is to see how much we can glean from the garden and NOT run to the store!! Come this Monday, I have to begin pushing the envelope around here. Canning and preserving begins and won't stop for a good month or more. When this all begins it's fun - but about halfway through is when it stops being quite so much fun. You have to have set your sights on something more than just fun - you need to set your sights on stocking that pantry of yours!!!
My brother and his wife could arrive any time this morning so I've got to get going. Let's see: deviled eggs (check), cheesecake (check), salad (check) . . . . .

It's rained off and on all day today but that didn't stop us from having a good time. It was great to have the company and I don't think I've EVER heard Hubby talk as much as he did today. My sister-in-law and I even sneaked in a little shut-eye. TeeHee!!!! We were so bad!!
