Dry and Hot Weather

After all the nice spring rains, we are dry, dry, dry. Andrew and Noah put mulch out for me yesterday. The beds look "finished", but more than that, I'm counting on that mulch to help keep moisture in the soil. The boys watered after placing the mulch in the morning, and I watered again in the evening. I want to encourage plump blueberries and tomatoes that don't fall off the vine!

Last night I prepared wineberries for one more batch of jam, which I intend to process this morning. Of all the jams I make, I think wineberry is the most beautiful to look at... and the taste... fabuloso!
