i'm not sure if i let my lettuce go too long or if they bolted because of the warmer weather, but my lettuce box looked a mess today! i was a bad gardener and neglected them the past few days. they looked so bad that i was ashamed to take a pic. =/
on a happy note, i harvested a large amount of lettuce and was able to share with the neighbors. (i need to get one of those scales that granny has to track the weight of my produce!) i know the lettuce will probably be on the bitter side but i read online that keeping it in the fridge a day or two will help that.
red sails, romaine, and gourmet bibbi have a few of these peppers on the plant and some more blooms.

and one of its flowers
this tomato plant had a broken stem. i repotted it and after a few days it was well again. i liked admiring it in the window as i did the dishes, but i said to myself that i'll start hardening it off once it touches the top of the window. i was like a sad mom watching her child frolic off to school for the first time. this was it's last day inside.
it did fine once i put it outside, and even started to bloom!
the Milky Way morning glory reached the top of the vine. i wonder if it will climb to the opposite end of the trellis.
here is one of the milk way blossoms all snuggled up for the night.
see the heart? i'll take this as a sign that my garden loves me =)

i wonder if any of these 4th of july's will hold true to its name and ripen by saturday!
