Wow, the hot weather really slammed us this week. March ended with unseasonably warm days in the upper 60s and lower 70s, then April showed up and WHAM! We hit 93 the first week.

This past week has definitely been beneficial for my sun-lovers, let me tell you. We went from this delicate-veined zucchini unfolding…

…to this brawny, raucous crew in just seven days.

*tear* They grow up so fast!

But seriously though, it has been a whirlwind. Even the sugar snap peas, a cool-weather crop if ever there was one, has benefited from the influx of hot, sunny weather. They’ve been doing some serious chorophylling.

This is the biggest, already at eight inches tall.

Is there ANYTHING more adorably curly and optimistic than pea tendrils?
