Somewhere in this photo are chives and other herbs. Sassy's favorite place to chill and cool down, is in the chives, on the cool dirt. She has made herself a nice little spot too. But after I took the photo, and loaded it, I realized how badly my herb garden needed weeded. Yikes.

Good Summer Food
The weatherman said we'd get rain, and they sky surely looked like it. We got a few sprinkles here and there, but not what we really needed. I started the day by spending some morning time on the porch, while the kiddos slept in.
I got a break from outdoor work, and canning, and cooked up some garden recipes. First, I made Fresh Dill and Cucumber Salad (mmmm!). The dressing for this salad uses a teaspoon of raw honey.
Then I made our cauliflower crust pizzas, topped with garden delights. Planning meals has been pretty fun this summer so far.
