Truly Humbled
You want actual humility? Try realizing, halfway through the summer, that there’s a very good reason you never blogged before: you have nothing interesting to say. Here I am, tapping away… and even…
“I’m humbled to announce…”
…Actually humbled. Halfway through the summer and with crystal clarity, I realized my garden blog is the slow march of zucchini and aphid gossip that no one asked for.
Those tomatoes won't prune themselves, though.

The aphids feasted, the ladybugs ghosted, and the nasturtium gave up the ghost. It might be time to pull the trap plants and face the fallout. Here’s hoping the tomatoes hang on.
So much for the ladybugs. The nasturtium took one for the team… and then some. I wanted the trap plant theory to work, but I might have created a buffet. Tomorrow: clear the patch and hope the tomatoes hold up.

It seems kind of awful to me that, at the farm supply store, the barbecue grill display is right next to the live chicks.
