We spent this morning catching up on some gardening chores.... weeding, staking, and thinning out. 

This is our first year planting carrots, and I'm really pleased at how they are coming along.  We are still getting radishes, and the potatoes are also beginning to be ready for picking.  The squash, tomatoes and cucumbers are all flowering and starting to form....  Beans are growing, but not producing yet...

I'm also dedicating some time this week to reading my Ball's Blue Book of Canning in preparation of what's to come.....
