    Beans just don't know when to quit. LOL

    We just have one 19' row, with a few plants in another row that didn't quite do as expected.

    The surprise in our bean rows are a few tomato plants which sprouted all by themselves from last year's drops.

    Me Like Cookies Please!

    Today the ringing phone in the house was on ignore. We weeded a spot for the dogs to lay in & cool off & then tackled the jungle. We almost got lost between the carrots & beets but found our way out eventually. Those green & yellow beans a person can get them to last till November around here. Maybe the beans like the clay soil.

    What are you going to do all the beans Steam, Boil, Can, Freeze, Eat, or all of the above? This a mutiple choice quiz.

    'Specially as he forgot to bring any to the party Saturday!

    Jenn, great pictures of the garden, and the eggplant one is quite pretty! And of course I like the one with Lady's smallest (for now) humans in it!

    Good morning all!

    We have fresh canteloupe with cottage cheese (one of my favorite summer breakfasts) with coffee on the bar. Help yourself!

    Last night we had Tilapia with a garden saute of several kinds of peppers, green and yellow squash, tomatoes and onion (all picked right before cooking except the onion) and OUR FIRST OF THE SEASON SLICED TOMATOES on the side!!

    We'll have leftovers at the bar later!

    I always have a 'yearly cup of coffee' ...it may be time.


    There is nothing more satisfying that a meal that's home grown..
