25+ watercolors

After three days of mixed rainshowers and a lot of indoors activities like water colors, Kindle gadgeting, writing, sleeping - the hot Greek sun was back this morning, a large cup of coffee and the sun was *very* hot against the wall and the Kindle works brilliantly even in direct sunlight. Today is Saturday and I have already made the 25+ watercolors that goes with the next Kamini Press book. Mission completed.

 

Kalamata

I picked five liters of olives and this was the best year so far - fairly big and soft olives. Not so many but they were bigger than they've been before. The tree is somewhat in the shade of the big eucalyptus tree, otherwise the olives would have been even bigger...
Those of you who have read this blog before may think that I am a very clever gardener?

 

Portokali

I've never seen this big oranges on our tree before, seems like they've had a good mix of water and sun. I tried and tasted some oranges that looked ripe. The fruit was juicy inside with a good color but they tasted almost nothing. In December, when they are ready, they will be sweet and soft and perfect for juice. Orange juice...:-)
