I planted the very last vegetable on Sunday.
Saturday, I thought we had everything in, until Hubby picked up a bag and said, what about this? Ha ha ha ha! Oh, I was so excited it was all in and wanted to throw that bag at him.
We reached a high of 95 degrees on Saturday, but Sunday it was in the 70's. On Saturday I chipped ice for my chickens. We had to put fans in the barn too. The animals were not going outside in the heat, and were looking for relief.

Wear it out,
Make it do,
Or go without."

The Garden and Random Tidbits
The current tea of my choice - freshly grated ginger and freshly squeezed lemon. Hot tea on a hot day sounds odd, but it was good. Today, I'm delegating iced tea making to a daughter.
My ladies got a recent treat - mushy banana and over-ripe apples. They love the bananas! Today, I'm most likely crushing ice for them. The heat will be high today.
