We have sugar peas! These things grow overnight, I swear. You see a flower one day, and the very next day: bingo! Pea. My challenge is to keep Junebug from gobbling them up before I can harvest enough to put into a bowl for supper.

We had a nice, fairly quiet weekend. We've had lots of rain lately, which I found highly comforting considering how many of our neighbors were shooting off fireworks for the fourth (and fifth).
We even had a little mini-show yesterday evening in our backyard, featuring some snakes, sparklers, smoke bombs and the ground bloom flowers (big favorites!). The snakes always remind me of Sinda, and of Chances, the defunct Austin hangout.
