Harvesting and a Happy Kitty

We're starting to get veggies from our Summer garden!  Woohoo!

Here's my harvest from this morning...a couple of Patty Pan squash and some pickling cucumbers...


I picked our first three cucumbers a couple of days ago.  I plan to make some pickles today.


Penelope got her staples out on Tuesday.  I think it felt a little funny and starting driving her a little crazy as she kept whipping her head around and trying to get to the area they'd been.  I distracted her with her new mouse toy.  It worked!  She had so much fun playing with it.  And, she even wrapped her paws around it at one point and laid her head on it.  So cute!


She's a much happier kitty now that those staples are gone!  She's able to relax a lot more.  Here she is hanging out with me this week as I worked on trying to finish up some old WIPs.



I caught her looking in the mirror.  So cute!


I can't believe this week is almost over already!  Seems like it was just Monday!  How's your week going?  What have you been up to?

Glad she is on the mend. I love this time of year when we start to harvest and are rewarded for all our hard work, Mother Nature at her finest.

Nice looking harvest! So glad Penelope is doing better; we hate it when our kitties are under the weather!

I'm sure Penelope is glad to finally be over all that medical stuff. So lovely to harvest your own little vege patch. The cucumbers I used for my pickles were ones I brought back from Jordan -- like long green snakes. Crunchy and perfect for pickling. We ate from them a couple of times, but that dang suction lid on the jar was always a problem ... this time I lost my grip and down they went. Ugh! Have a good weekend.
