Garden Update
Pumpkin season is over already. Here’s the biggest one. Only 11.4 pounds and 32 inches around. Look how square it is from above. So much for being an Atlantic Giant.
Here’s the rest of the backyard. The area closest to the camera is where I had the toughest time getting anything to grow, including the Atlantic ‘Giants’. Its also where the crimson clover cover crop was growing over the winter.
But at least the santa claus melons and canary melons are doing well. Look at ‘em spilling over onto the patio. Brandywines and volunteer tomatoes are crowded together behind the melons.
Here’s one of our first watermelons. So small, but so tasty.
It has a split in it like about half of the melons and tomatoes. What on earth is causing this?
And now for a shot of Jack’s man boobs. They’re visible since his fur hasn’t grown back in after a piece of a sponge ball was removed from his duodenum. A week and a half of not eating much caused him to lose a noticeable amount of weight, probably making his man boobs saggier than they were.
My cat has bigger breasts than I do! Should I knit him a manzierre?`
