Peppers and Tomatoes and it's Nearly November!

I admit it I am ready for cooler weather, but this warm weather does have some advantages. Just look what came out of the garden today. The cool weather vegetables are looking good too. I think I'll make scratch spaghetti sauce and mixed greens tonight for dinner. Yum!

Garden...

Our garden has been enjoying all the spring (Now summer) weather and so have we.
It has brought nice crops of lettuce, sugar snap peas, strawberries and a couple blueberries.

                                                            ~Our sweet little "farm"~

                                       ~Our blooming lavender~

                                            ~Blue Berries~

                                                  ~Our sweet cucumber blooms~

                                     Peas!  This photo was taken about a week ago.
                                      Our peas are almost out of season.  Boo hoo. :-(

                                               ~Strawberries~ Most of our strawberries have turned out nicely. But we are not experts at strawberries. So they are a little delicate and a couple are mushy before ripening.
Do you have any tips? :-)

                         We culled our peaches about two weeks ago and they are now steadily growing larger.
                          We are hoping for some lovely juicy peaches, soon!


We hope your gardens are as bountiful and healthy as we have been blessed with.


Psalm 128 : 1-2
Blessed are all who fear the Lord,

who walk in his ways.

You will eat the fruit of your labor;

blessings and prosperity will be yours.

Winter Garden Suprises

Due to the wonderfully warm weather today I decided to take the boys outside to play. While I was out I took the opportunity to do a little garden clean up. We planted carrots in the late summer and we ate a few of them. I intended to pull them up but never got around to it. So I was very pleasantly surprised to find over three pounds of fat, stubby, but perfectly edible carrots. What a nice precursor to spring!
