Well, we've been back from our very long vacation to Canada for a few days now and of course I haven't unpacked a single suitcase yet. My bedroom looks like either a tornado tore through it or the dressers exploded (or perhaps both). Apparently it rained and rained and rained while we were gone and although my darling husband assured me that the weeds in the garden were "not too bad", one look at the jungle of my former garden and that was it, my job for the week. It took two days just to unravel all the tomato vines from the crab grass that was their new home and stake them up. And I discovered about 8 eggplants hiding away. Oh, and did you know that if you let radishes grow they become 4 feet high with very pretty pink flowers? I especially loved the approximately 20 3-foot long zucchini and the UFO sized yellow scallopini squash. Sigh. Oh garden, I'll never leave you again. Or at least next time I'll only plant pumpkins which can pretty much take care of themselves. So now I'm paying for my vacation which was a lot of fun and exhausting all at the same time. I'll have to blog about it later, once I find my camera in the tornado-wreckage!
