It has been a full day.  Full of summer.

Today we:

• harvested for Saturday’s market and CSA shares
• gleaned a whole lot of strawberries for the freezer from our very kind farmer friends
• swam in the pool (or knitted/read/made lists while watching the small ones swim in the pool)
• drank gallons of water
• got sweaty and hot and loved it (mostly)
• picked cherries
• washed and sorted and froze the whole lot of strawberries
• cooked and ate three delicious farm meals
• washed the dishes, swept the floor, and hung close on the line
• read stories and played with the kitty and tucked the children in to bed
• finished washing and bundling veggies under the stars

And this is why I didn’t work on this week’s farm newsletter all day.  But I am sure it is not just our family busy enjoying the song of summer, so I am thinking this week, the lovely harvest can mostly speak for itself.
