Jack’s Walk

It’s been a hot day here and the upcoming Canada Day weekend promises to be even hotter with high humidity. Temps of 30 – 33° with humidex of around 40° are expected. That’s just too hot for Jack to be out anywhere for long so I think short walks around the neighbourhood may be as far as we venture for a few days. Sometimes adventure loses out to common sense.

Lilac Potato Blossom

Some potatoes have lilac colored blossoms, I do not know why. It does not seem to be entirely dependent on which variety it is, since there are both white and lilac in one row and that row allegedly contains only one variety. My suspicion is however that my dad mixed up the tubers inadvertently and that the lilac blossoms are those from the red potatoes (I do not know the exact variety we bought this year).
