They have a taste and unique flavor that makes them well worth a journey to a pick your own blueberry farm.Ī combination of canned blueberry pie filling concocted with a mix of fresh blueberries and a crust made from two ready-made pie shells makes this cobbler easy to prepare. It really takes patience to pick blueberries. Leave the kids at home with grandma simply because blueberry fields and kids do not combine well when your goal is to harvest a few buckets of blueberries. The best time to visit the blueberry fields and have a somewhat comfortable condition for picking several buckets of berries is to go early in the morning hours before the sun heats up the fields. The blueberry harvest is getting ripe in the Dog Day Sun. Drop spent blooms on ground outside the row or bed so the birds can peck the seeds from the died Zinnias. As Zinnia blooms phase out, pinch off blooms to promote growth of new blooms. Soak the zinnia row or bed with a cool, drink of water to relieve the stress of Dog Day heat. Do not spray water directly on the foliage because this promotes powder mildew and cucumber mosaic. As Dog Days get hotter, keep zinnias watered at the base of the plants with the water wand in shower” mode. The swallowtail butterflies, bumblebees, goldfinches and sparrows visit the zinnias every afternoon as well as the majestic monarch butterflies.

The Zinnia bed is in full bloom with a rainbow of summer beauty and color. Garnish the tops of tomatoes with stuffed olives or tomato cubes. Cool in the refrigerator for an hour before serving. Mix all ingredients and spread into the hollowed out tomatoes. In a bowl, mix an eight-ounce pack of cream cheese (softened), three tablespoons mayonnaise, ten florets of fresh broccoli (diced), 12 strips of crispy fried bacon (diced), one peeled and diced cucumber. Cut off tops of the tomatoes and scoop out the seeds and pulp and place the hollowed out tomatoes in a round glass plate. To prepare this recipe, you will need eight medium-sized firm freshly harvested tomatoes. This special recipe calls for fresh tomatoes combined with other ingredients to make a tasty tomato dish on a warm summer evening. Lima beans with diced fresh ripe tomatoes mixed in them is also a special taste treat. Tomatoes from the summer garden brighten any meal and they enhance the flavor of any vegetable dish they become a part of such as fried corn, with diced tomatoes mixed into the corn. What a taste of heaven that was! One of the blessings of summer’s Dog Days is the rays of the sun bearing down on the rubies of the garden in summer. We remember only one thing better and that was my mother and grandma’s cat head biscuits with a tomato the very same size as the biscuit and coated with Duke’s mayonnaise, salt and pepper. The very best tomato sandwiches are made with sun-heated tomatoes directly from the garden, sliced, placed in fresh slices of bread, sprinkled with salt and pepper on both sides and smothered with mayonnaise on both sides. The joy of harvesting and excitement of the regular harvest of ripe tomatoes heated by the summer sun and that first tomato sandwich of the season is near. Temperatures fall as the leaves and garden foliage absorb the rain drops and both spread back their petticoats in thankfulness and even as the clouds clear out, the sky responds with a colorful rainbow at the close of a Dog Day afternoon. The summer wind picks up and so do the torrents of rain. Even the hot foliage in the garden plot of summer vegetables fold open their green leaves to wait for the approaching thunder and lightning that heralds the up and coming refreshing thunderstorm, when huge raindrops will fall from dark gray clouds. The leaves on the mighty oaks, poplars, and maples flip their petticoats as they await the heat-relieving benefits of an afternoon thunderstorm. The sweltering sun bears down and heats up the Dog Day afternoon. Freshness in a Dog Day afternoon thunderstorm
