I just saw this again and thought it would be so apropo here......

LH is that your GARDEN????? That's fabulous!! I so miss having a garden living in this condo/apartment. Not that it would have survived all of our hail storms this year mind you.

I would love to contribute some iciban salad! One of my fav's.

I'm having some minty green tea if anyone cares to join me.

Oh Lady.....I've got dog cookies!!!!!!

[Lady's Human]

Yep, that's our garden. Rather, it's the main garden about a month ago.

Now we have tomatoes ripening, corn is on the way, we're inundated with squash, we've got about 15-20 bags of green beans in the freezer, broccoli, and the cauliflower are on the way.

We also have an herb bed and a salad green bed.

Hopefully next year the blueberries and raspberry bushes will produce enough to do something with.

Cool! it's fun to see, you know I can't have a vegetable garden here for several reasons - mainly bad dirt and no sun to mention, not to mention the likely lead content of the soil even if I got sun.

Enjoy, you know I'm jealous, but allergic to most of it anyway. Has Marylin Jean learned to make cornhusk dolls yet?

[RICHARD]

I am going to petition LH to see if he needs a Mexican gardener.

I'll take my pay in produce.

Close enough?

As long as Herb is sleeping in it?

LOH is going to have to take pic of the other gardens so I can post them tomorrow. There's something to be said for making Bruschetta using only ingredients out of your own gardens.

Oh those squash flowers!! YUM!! My grandma used to make a fritter using them when we were kids. The most delicious thing in the world!!

LOVE Zucchini flowers on a pizza! I've never had the stuffed ones or fritters, but I'm sure it's good!

There's something to be said for making [anything] using only ingredients
out of your own gardens.

There's a LOT to be said by having to say "gardens" in the plural!

[Lady'sOtherHuman]

Yeah and LH is already talking about making the main one bigger next year and then that's how big it will stay. (We'll see about that). We've already discussed putting the spaghetti squash and the pumpkins in their own raised beds next year because they tend to like space. We have an ambitious spaghetti squash plant trying to use one of the tomato cages and the pumpkins have invaded my pak choi.
