Summer has finally arrived in the Pacific Northwest, bringing sunshine, warmer temperatures and garden happiness. Our veggies have stopped pouting and are galloping to catch up to where they normally would be at this time of year. It’s been an odd gardening year though. Summer started out cool and wet; we’ve been dealing with Covid restrictions and stock limitations at many garden centres; and we’ve been in observation mode in our new garden – watching what flowers when, checking out the light levels and exposure patterns, and planning for next year. It’s left me more time to read . . . and I have a lovely patio where I can enjoy a good book. Here’s what I’m reading this month.
The Comfort Food Diaries by Emily Nunn
The Moonglow Sisters by Lori Wilde
In an Instant by Suzanne Redfearn

If that’s your patio, what a lovely spot!
It is Lea, and thank you. I wish you were here to enjoy it with me!
What a gorgeous flowerbed and patio. You did say you bought a garden and a house came with it.
That’s exactly true, Alice! And I’m loving the garden these days.
