Now, that really is a noteworthy thing. For the four years that we have had a garden at this house, we have succeeded in growing weeds, and zucchini ... and that's about it. You just can't kill a zucchini plant.
In June we were agreeably surprised to discover we could also grow radishes. No one really liked 'em that well, so we ended up giving most of 'em to Grandpa, but still! It was a successful expiriment.
In the last few weeks, I've been surprised how many home-grown veggies we've been eating. We've had a couple meals of sweet corn, some broccoli, lettuce, and several green peppers. And lots and lots of tomatoes!
Turns out if you weed things occasionally, they actually grow better. Who knew?
This picture of tomatoes makes me happy ... it just looks so fresh and yummy.
This is what the zucchini gets turned into! Emily's quite the bread baker.
Here she's eating a piece while she makes mac-and-cheese for dinner. :P
It doesn't stick around very long!
