Its 8:30pm, the boys are finally asleep after a nearly 2 hour struggle (e.g. feeding session) and I should probably do the dishes but instead, I decided to take a walk through the garden and get the last rays of sunshine in. I am feeling exhausted today and will probably head to bed as soon as the dishes are cleaned. 

we have a had a bit of a wet week or two going on, not much sun and low temperatures with lots of rain. The garden is growing and I love the fact that I can have salad every day. My freezer is full with fruits from the berry bushes as well as some cherries. The tomatoes are growing and I can't wait for them (or the cucumbers). My second planting of peas and carrots are coming out now too, the carrots will be for the fall garden. I can't believe how big the potatoes have grown, despite the fact that I have a mouse in there somewhere all year already, that keeps eating my plants (it can happen that a full plan just disappears, morning she is there, by evening it's gone).

Well before I actually fall asleep writing this, I better go and do the dishes so I can go to bed. What is going on in your garden?
