The growing season is in full swing. There's even some harvesting going on from two of our three planted boxes.

It hit 90 today. As the sun set, we found a honey-hoisin-ginger glaze for the chicken, tossed it on a bed of lettuces from our garden (baby romain, salad bowl and buttercrunch) and served it with a chardonnay-semillon blend with a touch of black currant syrup, known in some circles as "kir." Oh, and I've started a photo blog so maybe I'll post more often. Maybe.

It was a big outdoors weekend for us - the patio furniture came up, the grill came out and the garden is starting to show some progress. Plus, we're really liking how the flox is hanging on. See more photos in the annex.

Took a walk around the yard today. Found a bunch of flowers. The two pear trees, the weeping cherry, the serviceberry and the flox are all blooming up a storm.
