quivering with excitement

TWO and 7/8 Inches of rain (74 mm) !!!! Just what the garden needed in those inches below the surface where it was getting as dry as dust. Meanwhile, the first tomato blush has appeared ... my tomato knife is quivering with excitement.Admirable harvest baskets are marching out of the garden each morning. And tonight I will harvest my first artichoke in two years.

Things are really busting out, although I did start to yell "enough is enough" after we passed the four inch mark this morning! Your garden looks great. :)
