Vegetable Garden Update
The other day, I stepped out into my vegetable garden to get a close up look at how my veggies are ripening.
Vegetable Garden
It may be hard to tell what is what because at first sight, it looks like a sea of green.
In the back I have cauliflower and carrots growing among the nasturtiums. Toward the front, I have green onions, green leaf lettuce, spinach, parsley and oregano.
The front part of the garden is full of San Marzano tomatoes, pink-flowering Oxalis (not a veggie), garlic and nasturtiums, which are spilling out of the garden.
Lastly, the side garden has shallots, sugar snap peas and a single cauliflower.
I love this time of year when there is so much going on in the garden, don’t you?

I would like to thank you all for your supportive comments concerning the flooding of our house.
We currently have 30 high power fans and 2 large de-humidifiers working in our house. Unfortunately, that makes the air very warm – 90 degrees inside.
My kitchen is non-functional while appliances are pulled away from the walls, so we are eating out quite a bit (which really isn’t all that bad 😉
The interior walls, furniture and carpet were destroyed. Thankfully, the insurance company has been very helpful.
I hope you all have a great weekend!

Glad to hear the ins. co. is working with you and that things are moving along.
Give your daughter a hug from me. I hope she's feeling better after this episode in her life. Stuff happens to all of us.
Enjoy your time off from cooking. 🙂

Lovely display of healthy growing plants…. a mixture of everything! I love it.
Flooded homes are no fun!
Your garden is gorgeous. I can't wait to get mine started.
It's just amazing to see your garden flourishing after just checking on mine, where hardly anything has come up yet. I always plant too early or too late!
Oh! I cannot wait until the soil warms up! I'm so jealous.
Your garden is so beautiful and fruitful! What a great job you all did. I am so sorry to hear about the water. That can be so awful but sounds like things are going as well as can be expected. I hope the insurance covers all the damage for you.
Nice garden.
Beautiful looking plants.
Can't wait to start mine.
