I picked and immediately ate two raspberries today. They were delicious but could have been two more days to full ripeness. Lots more on the way!
Today was the Wimbledon social at the tennis club. One of the members provides scones and other members bring strawberries, cream and other goodies. So it is quite a feast. There were sandwiches, quiches, salads and fruit trays. I brought some crackers and cheese and my friend Kathy brought devilled eggs. Unfotunately I felt quite ill afterwards - don't know if it was the food or the heat. I did play two sets beforehand and it was getting quite hot by the time we stopped for the food. When I got home I lay down for a couple of hours and feel much better now.
The pool guys found some algae in the pool today and treated it with a strong dose of chemicals. So I wasn't able to swim until 6:00 p.m. and by then I really needed a swim as I was quite hot and sticky. I watched some tennis from Wimbledon and the last Canadian in the singles draw was eliminated (by Novak Djokovic) There are still a couple of Ladies in Doubles play.
So, it's been quite a busy and eventful day. I should sleep well tonight!
Raspberries and the strawberries this year are delicious, pleased you enjoyed them both. It is very hot and humid again isn't it. We really need a gentle rain all of the recent storms have either been north or south of me. Keep cool, another scorcher today.
