this is the story of our life at "Rosevale on the Palouse Prairie" in eastern Washington State, and my love affair with all things fiber/fabric. 'BeanQueen' you might ask, well in my previous life I was the curator of the Phaseolus Germplasm Collection (beans native to the western hemisphere) in the United States. My lovely #2 sister gifted me with my 'autre nom'.

And they just keep coming..........
those strawberries, I mean ;~) - froze 12 more pints & 1 Qt (I ran out of pint containers, LOL). We've been eating lots of them, too. There is nothing like strawberries to tell you it really is summer. Since the rest of the garden is limping along we will have these red beauties if not much else, ie. the poor corn is only about 1&1/2 - 2 feet tall and is beginning to tassle - I expect we won't get much corn. I did, however, get some nice kohlrabi from the garden yesterday and it looks as if there will be more for us to enjoy.

Is it raining there on the Palouse? It's raining here on our end of the Camas Prairie -- also windy and 60 degrees. Can you believe this summer?
So glad to hear about your strawberries. Maybe you'll share your secrets. I just pulled the spinach out this morning. I have zucchini coming on. The Montmorency cherries are turning red. I'm waiting for a promising crop of raspberries.
