cheese sandwiches and rain barrels



Today was a rain day. Christina came over and we made impromptu cheese sandwiches for lunch- gorgonzola, sharp cheddar and gouda.

I also finally installed two rain barrels on our house. They're repurposed olive barrels from Greece. They were filled with one rain! Sheryl (my downstairs neighbor) and I have planted tomatoes, sweet and spicy peppers, tomatillos, beans, snap peas, carrots, spinach, lettuce, basil, cilantro and parsley in the garden, with kale, pickling cukes and squash on the way. Now we'll be using rainwater for mid-summer gardening!
