    Right now I'm eating some nice figs... tomorrow I'm going to cut up a tomatoe freshly picked off the vine and make a nice sandwhich. Then in a few weeks when the squash is ready I'll be having some squash keesh or something.

    Nothin' beats vegetables ripened on the vine!

    I don't what's up with our garden this year... nothing but the cucumbers and peppers are growing. :( We didn't get many blueberries either... normally we get gallons and gallons of them.


    But man are fresh cucumbers with a bit of balsamic good.

    tomatoes, herbs, onions, peppers, beans, radishes, corn, cukes not many peas, waiting for the carrots, potatoes, and melons/pumpkins to get bigger though...

    I also just planted some more radishes and some more potatoes to see if I could get two or even just one and a half growing seasons up here with a descent yield for the effort.

    the berries have been over for a while :'(
