Friday night, rather than watching a movie together, we walked through town picking wild plums and apricots that were hanging over the sidewalks, streets, and parking lots. It was an absolute blast. I hope it is the first in many such adventures.Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15738318324942700985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26113031.post-31352857156641133582007-06-25T13:02:00.000-07:002007-06-25T13:02:00.000-07:00Wow...I'm envious!

Not very flavorful.<BR/><BR/>Our small "square-foot" gardens are going well although we are now entering the period of year (July and August) where the heat just kills everything. It's our in-between growing season.<BR/><BR/>My youngest daughter and I put some green bean seeds in a wet paper towel, stuck that in a Ziploc and hung it from the blinds in her window until the beans sprouted. Nice and healthy. We put them in potting soil in mason jars and put those outside where they would get sunshine and overspray from some other plants.<BR/><BR/>They died in less than a day. Just fried up from the 105+ heat.<BR/><BR/>Bummer. I may try again and see if we can find a sunny location in the house to grow beans until we can put stuff in the ground in late August/early September.<BR/><BR/>Anyway...I'm changing the topics up over at my little online publishing petri dish and would love to feature your oatmeal recipe you left a while back. Would that be OK with you? You'll get full credit and a link to Ironmom or this site, or to both. Your call. I also wouldn't mind "picking" your brain for future submissions on organic food and how we can all use urban farming (to some extent) to help us fuel our bodies as athletes.<BR/><BR/>hak /johnhakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08896324510960012602noreply@blogger.com
