There are still lots of greens in the garden, but everything is really spicy. I’ve lost track of what that pepper variety is, but it had too much kick to be comfortably part of a salad. I’ll let the rest of those peppers ripen on the plant and then make hot sauce with them.

I know what the dog variety is, though: It’s boston terrier/pug, an heirloom variety normally only found in my bed.

The smaller cherries are Juliets; the larger ones are Evans, which are later and sweeter (although still tart). James (my husband) also picked the last of the saskatoons and the first of the raspberries.
