Yesterday we received some MUCH needed rain. It was a steady rain here in Durham from around 9Am to about 8PM. We received a touch over two inches. There aren't many puddles either, which tells me it soaked nicely into the terra firma and now it's not as firma. Our grass also needed some help too. We wouldn't care as much about the grass but we have our guests coming a week from Saturday for the big day.
There's nothing better on a dark, cool day than the aroma of soup from the dutch oven filling the entire house. We used our first leeks from the garden and more potatoes too. It was delicious and there's plenty of left overs.
The other night we pulled three ears of corn, so now (except for the onions and the butternut squash) the garden is fully operational for eating.
I LOVE this time of year!
Happy eating!
