The Babies

 Baby English Cucumber, Baby, Gourd, Baby Green Bean & Baby Italian Squash

Summer is in full swing!  It's been such a lovely warm summer and everything big and small seems to be thriving.  I can remember many a fourth of July here in Wisconsin, where we needed sweaters and stood huddled in small clusters while we watched the parade.  Not this year.  Yesterday morning I heard the first clear sound of the summer cicada.  To me, this sound is like catching site of the first firefly.  It's magical.  It makes me take a deep breath in and smile.  I wish you all a fourth full of love, family,  friends and those special moments where you take a deep breath, time slows a bit, and you simply smile.
