Squash!


Today Mom and I picked some squash from our garden! We fried them with onions, and they tasted really wonderful. As you can see, one of the squash is actually two conjoined. I'd never seen such a thing happen with vegetables!

Fresh Organic Produce: Straight from the Backyard!

One of the big projects when we moved into this house ten years ago was a large garden, and for many summers, we've enjoyed fresh vegetables. This evening I went out and looked around, astonished by the beauty and amazed at how quickly everything is growing! This summer, Mom planted tomatoes, leeks, onions, peppers, zucchini, squash, lettuce, basil, thyme, rosemary, etc. Flowers too! Here are some pictures:

Tomatoes that are getting larger every day!



Squash! It tastes great fried with onions.... YUM!
