First Peas; First Nineties

Last year, we were eating from the garden—just a little bit—in the last ten days of May.  This year, our first bite came on 7 June when VSO found a handful of peas.  Garden production in 2013 is probably about two weeks behind what it was in 2012.  Of course, 2012 featured an exceptionally warm spring, with temperatures nearing 90F in May.  That obviously had a lot to do with the early garden production.  Well, for 2013, the hot weather has now arrived.  Along with the peas, we've got nineties.  I'm happy to see the former, but not the latter.
