….unlike other years this one is in before July
When I was working our garden sometimes didn’t get planted until the end of June or later. This year, thanks to a burst of energy, my husband was eager to get the seeds and plants in for his vegetable boxes. I’m in charge of the flowers.
The weather has finally shifted and it’s been comfortable enough to work outside in the garden. The soil is no longer swimming in water and is finally dry enough for planting. The family who cuts our grass also seeded it a few weeks ago and it’s looking very lush and healthy. Two evenings this week it’s been warm enough to eat supper on the deck and I’ve been enjoying my morning coffee outside.
Today’s dinner started with this amazing burrata, roasted peaches, prosciutto, tomato and arugula salad.
The main course was a mussel, shrimp, halibut and chorizo stew.
That stew looks delicious

Ohh yumm!! And that meal the other day after Jamie’s recipe as well! Was it all as good as it looked? 🙂 Especially curious about roasted peaches in salad. How does that taste like?

Roasted peaches in a salad are delicious. Roasting brings out the sweetness even more.

I am so behind on all the yard work I do … and here we are with another wet and soggy day.
The seafood stew looks amazing. I would love a bowl of that on a day like today!

I’m normally late getting my garden in but it feels great doing it earlier. We still have a few more things to sort out. The box at the back of the garden still needs planting. It seems that every other day the weather turns back to cold and rain. Hopefully Wednesday will be a nicer day.
