| Pelargonium/Geranium |
We have had a long cold spring, but our temperatures are in the 90s F lately. It is definitely summertime weather. The heat will probably curb the pelargonium's enthusiasm for bloom unless it has been bred to endure more heat. Night time temps are more favorable. We will see.

I'm usually outside working in the garden from the crack of dawn until about 9 a.m. Then it is time to go inside where it is cool.

| Purslane |
Purslane can take the heat. It needs full sun to open those pretty flowers. I have a few sunny spots in my mostly shade garden.

| Fruit, Nuts, and Honey |
On hot days I love fruit, nuts, and honey with a cold glass of milk. There is more than one way to beat the heat. Hubby cooks on the grill a lot. Think cool.
