No new pots to show, so I will focus on food. It's very, very hot today, so here's something refreshing! My raspberries have begun, but will not be as plentiful as last year, need to buy some new canes it appears, there were a lot of dead canes and a whole lot of thistles!! sweaty weeding in that mess for sure!
