I did my usual practice in the garden today, starting with opening the greenhouses in the morning, watering seedlings and plants, picking 13 different fixings for a salad, washing and assembling the salad for lunch, then doing more watering in the afternoon. Here is what it looked like:

| 1st zucchini |
The quinoa growing experiment is going well with seedheads forming. We also have our first zucchini, a light green type with a creamy texture called Cavili.
We spend alot of time here watching birds. The Stellar Jays are particularly present at the moment.

| Our house with new roof |
Finally, we had a new roof put on the house last week. This entailed taking off the solar panels before the roofers did their work, and the re-installing the panels. I think it looks good. You can see the bottlebrush plant, the angelica plants, and the rust covered garlic in this photo.
