Hot and Bored !

Well all is quiet on the work front.
Got to the boredom point after 2 days this week.
Apart from cleaning my desk or filing Tony's 3
buckets of work orders I can't find anything to do :-)

Strawberry crop is starting. Picked
a dozen last night - will have a glut by the weekend!
Ordered a canning/preserving system online today -
and some pectin - so should get the Strawberry Jam
made this year.

The weather is hot and dry, I'm tired of watering the veg.
garden already and it's only May! Looks like we are in for
a hot, dry Summer. Though looking at the forecast it is threatening
T-Storms on Saturday, just when I have our cook-out planned.

It's been so arrid that the Spinach had started to bolt last Sunday
- so I quickly chopped it all out of the garden. Bob washed, cooked
and froze it - boy was it delicious - so one good crop at least this Spring.

No flowers on the Peas yet
- don't know that they will do too much if
it stays this hot - oh well, who enjoys shelling
that many peas anyway ???

That's about it for now -
