Child Labor isn't so bad

We went berry picking in Sequim on a gorgeous sunny morning this week. Jonah's finally beginning to pull his weight or rather, eat his weight in berries. Summer ripe raspberries and blueberries and blackberries.....

Jonah and the Giant Peach

Summer is winding down here in the PNW and though I get a little melancholy that I have to start wearing shoes and socks again, the end of summer brings much happiness too. Happiness in the form of fruit! Our garden is bursting with fruits and vegetables and herbs; we are eating from it every day. Peaches, apples, rhubarb, lettuce, kale, scallions, NZ spinach, broccoli, cauliflower, raspberries, potatoes, parsley, tomatoes, beans, cilantro, basil, beets, fennel, oregano, thyme, sage, lavender, arugula, and if we are lucky, we'll be enjoying some peppers and eggplants too. Jonah loves to "help" me in the garden by pulling out weeds (lettuce) and digging new and interesting pathways often through the garden beds. Thank you Jonah.
