Of all the screwed up things in my life she is the example of something I did right.
Maybe the only thing! LOL

It's been a week ...

Bryan was over on Sunday - worked in the garden a full 8 hours

He raided the garden of ready fruit aand also helped himself to lots of what I had already picked, but I took a picture before he did so. This one's two days old.

Bad news this morning.

A while back, I reported that a large branch of the apple tree had broken off ... It's still attached to the tree & sap is still flowing (cause the leaves haven't dried up yet).

Well this morning, the same fate befell my much smaller pear tree. Except that this time, the branch was on the ground. Leaves were already fried up.

Lotsa fruit on the branch & they might still rippen, but the small pear tree just got smaller ...

Makes for a lot of fruit on the table ... specially since the tomatoes are rippening at an accelerated rate.


yup, that's a yellow tomato in the centre of the picture

even the neighbour's plums are rippening ... and Nancy, the neighbour on the other side came offering a dozen of her apples (just to the right of the picture).
