Yesterday, I happily observed my white mini-pumpkins growing. Today, I saw the slow-growing fig growing slowly. My tomatoes still haven’t ripened. Perhaps I’ll enjoy back-to-school tomato sandwiches in late August! And in October, I’ll put out all the mini-pumpkins (white, orange, yellow, and multicolored) for everyone on the street to pick for their autumn decorations. I think I’ll put pumpkins all around the Adirondack chairs as well! But fall hasn’t arrived yet; it’s not even August. I wish for us to savor these last few days of July.
