...but I really dig Gardening!!
So how's my garden doing you ask, lets take a peek...
Eggplant
as of today...
I have two coming!!
My tomato plant is small, compared to past years,
but it is producing a lot of tomatoes.
Here is my cucumber plant...
it is also producing a lot of funny shaped cucumbers.
Here's a picture of the first one we picked, it was delicious.
You really have to keep an eye on these,
they grow so fast going from a few inches to a foot,
in just a few days.
We are getting about one per day...
and this is what we have been eating for lunch, almost everyday.
Next year, I am definitely going to grow carrots!!
This is...
"All because someone planted a seed!!"
So what about you guys, are you eating from your gardens yet??

We've picked a few peppers and tomatoes are green still, but the basil and parsley are growing and being used. Years ago we had a very large garden and more veggies than we could use, despite freezing and giveaways.
glad you're getting produce!
Where ever it is we move next, I want a veggie garden. Ray loves to grow flowers, and I love to grow veggies. My first canning attempt -bread and butter pickles-was a huge success. Their deliciousness lives on in my memory.
PS re: my email: Ah-HA! You sneaked by me this morning! :) :) :)
Hey, those all look SO good! No, I'm not eating from my garden, but I just might sneak over to the neighbor's after dark! :)
Ooooo, your summertime lunch looks so yummy, Debbie, and healthy too! I did not have the time ofr a veggie garden this year. I had to choose between flowers and veggies, and flowers won! Hopefully next year, I'll have time for both. :-)
Wow! Inspiring! Seems more "manageable" the way you grow these plants in pots...a good first step to try a few. Seems less daunting than preparing a whole garden patch!
I cannot wait to start my garden in the fall. Amazing what one can grow even in medium-sized pots! I think everyone should have a garden and eat their own food. Tastes better and better for you.
Bon Appetite!!!! Rich Products, Debbie. They are the best;))
This year we have no garden, because Paco had surgery on his hernia. This is the last year;))

Very nice. I love the eggplant
Wow, looks like you have gone healthy! Your plants all look great, I love eggplant.. We have some cherry tomatoes growing..nothing ripe yet.. Enjoy your veggies..
OH your Eggplant is wonderful!!! It just looks wonderful. I sure enjoyed what we cooked last night. I love your lunch. I would eat that every day too. Your cucumbers are doing pretty good. I think that is the right amount to enjoy every day.
I told my husband, I feel so rich eating all of these fresh vegetables. I bet you do too. I like your garden. All nice and neat. Seeds are so amazing.
Nice job! I love fresh cucumbers! My grandmother used to make dill pickles with cucumbers from their garden. They were so good!
Looking very good! And delicious! Larry brought in some tomatoes tonight--just a few, but the most we've gotten. The cucumbers have been really good. The lettuce was so good. I want to plant a fall crop.
Mmm... fresh cucumbers sound divine! And the green tomatoes remind me of the time I made fried green tomatoes for my Grandma - they were quite tasty :)
Enjoy the remainder of your week!
Oh cool! I've never grown eggplant, might try next year. My tomato plants are 4 feet high, and as of todays count, I have 87 tomatoes...can you say, chili sauce! So far, all we are harvesting and eating are beets, and peas.
I used to grow summer plants Debbie! And i'm not eating from my garden,what a shame!!Yours look great!!I like the eggplant!Thank you for sharing!
Dimi...
Oh gosh, I feel sad; we haven't done any gardening at all this year. We had great plans; but so many things have interrupted our life it hasn't happened.
I do like the looks of that lunch. We still might try for some tomatoes because they grow well into the fall.
Loved the pictures; blessings for more good vegetables to come.
We got about a batch of radish and that's about it. Next year hopefully will be better.
