Garden Tour

Time for another garden tour. I am just so pleased at how well it is turning out. All the rain followed by lots of sun has really been good for growing this year. And between rising prices and salmonella I'm so excited to have our own veggies to eat this year!

Remember how our sunflower plants were eaten by the bunnies? Well, they couldn't reach these that came up in the planter on the deck.




Everything has blossoms on it. The cucumbers:




The green peppers:



The tomatoes:



The green beans (and purple beans) have little tiny beans on them! They are so cute:



The broccoli has little tiny broccolis (broccolettes?) starting to form:



And the one I am most excited about...the spaghetti squash:



If it keeps growing like this I am going to need your spaghetti squash recipes! E-mail them to me at freakmom at gmail.com or better yet, post them on Homeschool-Talk.

And one more, just because she's so darned cute. Violet at Chuck E. Cheese on her birthday:

Everything looks beautiful! Be sure to post a photo of your first "fresh from the garden" salad.

Your garden looks better than mine. I might post a picture of mine later. It's kind of pitiful.

Your garden does look great!
So many gardens around here are already burnt up looking. There is nothing better then eating fresh homes grown produce - Enjoy : )
