Local market was practically giving the peppers away today so we bought
a bunch of them. Chopped into small pieces and/or cut into slices they
will be frozen on a sheet pan then vacuum bagged for later cooking.

With all the rain we've been getting big cucumbers, squash, and a few
sweet peppers. Black crowder peas are still growing like crazy and the
earliest ones are starting to get ripe, just a few here and there.

Fig and pear trees are loaded, time to net the figs or the mockingbirds
will get all the fruit.

The rain stopped a little before noon today and hasn't come back yet but
is threatening two. We've had well over eight inches this past week and
really don't need anymore. At least it is cooler when it rains rather
than our usual humid, high temperatures.

Won't be long to canning time.
