Hello,
We know we are getting used to warm
when an 80 degree day is pronounced perfect! I certainly felt like getting some
watering and hanging out clothes chores done. If it never went over 90 again it
was be fine with all of us.
Today I steamed some kohlrabi leaves
to eat along with some beans and barley. I topped it all with salsa. Leroy was
not home to give his opinion, but I thought it was just fine.
How many things do Americans throw
away that could be eaten and provide good nutrition? This year we got all of
the cabbage family plants in the garden in good time for them to produce well.
Too often they have had to contend with heat. They do now, but they seem to be
big enough to deal with it.
Most nights we have opened the windows
and I am grateful for the cool evenings. Sometimes that does not happen. It
certainly makes the next day more bearable.
I am also grateful for air
conditioning, but I wish we did not have to use it, as I believe it is not good
for the earth. When I have lived without it, I think we adjusted or became
accustomed to the heat. At least I can remember people complaining about the
heat and I would wonder why? To me that day was fine.
Paula
