strawberry rhubarb pie

David made the first fruit pie of the season! Strawberries are from the farmers' market and the rhubarb is from our garden.

this week

The mulberries around our neighborhood have started to ripen; I picked and froze about a quart today along with some strawberries from the farmers' market.

We are participating in Heather's 30 Day Vegan Workshop; Here are the carrot spice cookies that I made last weekend. They were great!

Nasturtium is starting to come up

The clematis is blooming

The orange rose seems to think it is the middle of summer already

and the poppies are loaded with buds.

the arugula from our winter garden is flowering; I think the blossoms are stunning.
