Ok, it was my first try this year, but I admit you get me all frustrated about being too busy for serious gardening.<br />Or is it a matter of Frankfurt weather instead of Long Island? Still, I bet we had as much rain this summer as you did.<br />Well... I'll give it a try again next year...<br /><br />Big hug to all of you!Karen from Germanynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8908127.post-58014782747007319212009-08-19T00:44:39.906-04:002009-08-19T00:44:39.906-04:00I saw some relish at the fair that was neon green!...I saw some relish at the fair that was neon green!

And may I add that I was hoping you'd get to Sock Summit because then I could've met you for real and you wouldn't have had to deal with all the cucumbers but the relish really does look lovely.

We lost almost everything in the 6 weeks of rain (and now the weather is perfect for growing. Ironic, huh?)<br /><br />I like cucumber sandwiches - my favorite summer lunch!<br /><br />Did I already ask you for your sock pattern? I'm always looking for one that's quicker.Mary Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14416798580398814009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8908127.post-17121278309019743542009-08-15T17:27:32.559-04:002009-08-15T17:27:32.559-04:00I adore those socks!
