So good to hear that Lisa had a GREAT BIRTHDAY!!!, Chris... She really had a pretty good haul of COOL PRESENTS!!! You all are always so generous with each other with a peaceful family (almost always--we all have bad dayz)! It must be great to feel that love so generously given...

Another buzy day that started at 6 a.m., in the garden by 6:45... Found the Brussels sprouts plants and removed all of the lower leaves so I can grow SPROUTS, not a plant.... Took me a while to recognize the plant, but I\'ll never miss it again! Brussels sprouts have lots of branches, broccoli not nearly as many. If I had had time in the garden without all of this heat, I would have figured it out sooner... Live and learn! Each year I learn something new!

I\'m ready to plant a nice row of lettuce which I\'ll try to do tomorrow morning... May need to wait depending on the MonSter as he really kicked my butt today! This heat kills me and my energy and my wellbeing... Just surviving may have to be enough...

Love to you and Mom and DAd and Happy B-day Lisa!!! Have a nice evening! xoxoxo Cj

Hello Chris....Hope that Taylynn is okay and feeling better soon..this heat wave I think is getting to a lot of people. Happy Birthday wishes for Lisa What a great day of celebration you all had. Glad your Grandma is keeping cool and that you got to go see and visit her. Your garden looks amazing. I enjoyed hearing about how you and your Dad got the snowball bush! One of my favorite flowers in your garden. Always makes me smile. Glad that the PO office adventure went smoothly...good for you Chris.
I made the most tasty salad today,chopped cucumbers/tomato/avocado/purple onion with a bit of yogurt dressing..so good
Enjoy hearing about ddeadreds garden too...brussel sprouts are one of my favorites. good for arthritis as well. Next spring I am so inspired by you two I am going to plant some lettuce/cucumbers/tomatoes/potatoes/squash.!
Hugs and Best Wishes for you and your family my friend
