We spent the morning sleeping, eating, and planting tomatoes, cucumbers, and chili peppers (jalapeno, serrano, cayenne and habanero). We caught the Albertville Friendly Days parade in the afternoon. Typical small-town parade, but not especially well-paced, so I brought Slaughterhouse-Five along for the gaps. Nice to be reading a book that fits in your pocket.
Still a stroke of work to do tonight, so I’m gonna hold on the Gatsby observations. I write better in the morning, anyway …

The day was so lovely for a parade! I really enjoyed myself and we actually stayed for the whole thing this year. My forehead is sunburnt.

We all got a little toasty, too. Oh, and we planted green beans and sunflowers, too — a bit late, but we'll see what comes up …

Just one plant for each variety, Hubba. We freeze them or dry them. Never tried serranos before …
Habaneros are scorchers, but add such a good smoky flavor …
