A toast to this roast...

Kelly surprised me with a delicious grandma-inspired roast today, packed with green beans, chives, and scallions from the garden.

I pruned back the pumpkin vines and stuck the ends into the ground to promote side shoots and fruit growth. 

This morning before work, I hand-pollinated the pumpkin, zucchini, and squash plants. 

It has rained so much this summer that I've only had to water the garden artificially a few times.
