1. John tries making hash brown (later just a straight-up hash, for ease of cooking) using sweet potatoes: they’re delicious but when I go into the kitchen, I have to laugh – the entire kitchen side is covered in scraps of peel and juliennned vegetables. It looks like a horrific tuber crime scene.
2. After a lazy day, the late sunshine pulls us into action. I shelter from the wind in the greenhouse and transplant some seedlings. A labeling mishap means I’m not quite sure what’s what until the sharp, fresh scent of cucumber – already evident on the young leaves – helps me identify one set of plants.
3. I pick up a neglected crochet project – the granny square blanket I made such speed on in April. I get into a rhythm with my sewing – poking my fingers through the holes to ensure even joining – and three rows are finished by bedtime.
