. . . but the beans still need to be picked. And look! Our first red tomato!Not all the plants are handling our record-breaking heat wave with as much grace as the daylilies:
When I have the time (like this morning; Brian rode with Rick), spinning is a wonderful hot-weather pastime. It's very sedentary, alpaca doesn't stick to bare skin and summer fabrics, and my sweaty fingers give me just the right grip on slippery fiber. Pardon me while I indulge at . . .

What a startling red! I dont even like tomatoes, but that one looks wonderful :)
Indulge away, Michelle!
Isn't Mother Nature a brilliant artist? Her use of color is remarkable.
Do those purple beans turn green when you cook them? I had some of those the other day. They were WONDERFUL! One of my many discoveries in my new, eating healthy, livestyle...

WHEN will I learn to proof read???
Yes Nancy, those purple beans turn green when cooked. Good flavor plus pretty flowers and beans; can't beat 'em!
We've got day lilies in spades but I can't eat 'em. I'm crossing my fingers that my green tomatoes will turn red before the frost. We've picked exactly two. I spent $12 at the farmer's market on tomatoes because I love them so much. Grow!!!
So do you guys eat daylilies? They're quite good...different colors have different flavors even! I have 2 cookbooks devoted to daylilies, though I've failed to try anyway because I generally just break off the buds and eat them before they get in the house...lol.
Rayna, I THOUGHT I remembered that daylilies are edible! But no, I've never tried any.
Yup. Every part of the daylily is edible if I remember correctly, though I don't know that I'd wanna try the root? LOL.
Congrats on that first red tomato! Love the photo of it with the beans. How do you like those purple ones?
