Things are getting a little out of control in the garden. Renegade tomatoes are popping up and I haven't the heart to pull them out. Sunflowers seem to show up at two feet tall, and then what do you do with them? I'm trying to train the morning glories to just wrap themselves around the sunflowers, not the tomatoes and cucumbers.

I found some carrots that have actually sprouted. I had lost all faith in them, but eventually they did germinate. I planted another bunch where the first crop of radishes was, and more basil between the swiss chard. There are two wee blossoms on the blueberry bush. Cherries are starting to turn red.

We're off to get sushi and go to Cambridge. Wordsworth tonight, 5 p.m., Chriss Rizzo and Tim Peterson.
