Garden Broccoli

Cut today, cooked tonight!

Time for harvest!

Supper!

     Today we went out at lunch to peek at the broccoli and found that one was ready for harvest!  I also found that the weeds have taken over.  It rained just a little over an inch last evening/night and it was a beautiful day so I thought it would be a good afternoon to do some weed pulling.  Before I got started, the first thing I saw was a dead snake!  Ugh!  I mowed the other day and I'm wondering if it was in the wrong place at the wrong time or maybe one of the neighborhood cats that roams our backyard killed it.  Not sure.  Anyway, it wasn't even a foot long and it was pencil thin, but a snake is a snake.    So all the time I was pulling weeds, I was on the lookout for snakes.  I kept asking myself, "Is that a snake?"  I'd pull a weed, "Is that a snake?"  Uffda.  I didn't get very far in the weeding process and it started raining, so I came in!
