This year, IMHO, was a winner. We had a beautiful crop of veggies and enjoyed every bite. Truth be told, I believe my DH enjoys giving away the bounty as much as getting his hands dirty and his tummy full.
Here is some of the bounty from our garden this year:
 |
| pumpkin |
 |
| red and green pepper. (Leave the green pepper on the vine and it will turn red and be sweeter.) |
 |
| white, yellow, yukon, and red potatoes |
 |
| muskmelon or cantaloupe |
 |
| yellow summer squash |
 |
| leaf and head lettuces |
 |
| broccoli |
 |
| green beans, tomatoes, and basil
Now that's some good eatin', folks. It just may be a coincidence that the main characters in my mystery novella, Sunshine Boulevard, are snowbirds. And just like my DH and I, Jim is a big gardener and Gloria loves to use the veggies from Jim's garden in recipes. If you'd like a FREE copy of her recipes, email me and I'll send you out the Gloria Hart's Garden for Eatin' Recipe Collection. Email me at jqrose02 at gmail dot com.

Wow! Your garden does look like a winner. Mine on the other hand was so-so. Lots of beans, (small) tomatoes, and peppers. Other things? Let's just say I'll be visiting the Amish farm for jack o'lanterns and squash.
oh my gosh, I'm so impressed by your garden!! I've tried to grow pumpkins a number of times, but they don't get past the flowering stage. I blame the possums. Oh well.
You did get some wonderful eats from your garden. : )
