Didn't expect this to happen....


At the end of May, Jon found out that he was scheduled to work summer school. Jon and I were not happy because summer school means traveling, which is something that we LOVE to do. Knowing that I would have some extra time on my hands, I decided to start a vegetable garden.

When I planted my veggies, I was unsure how successful my little garden would be for three reasons. One, I have never been the sole "care taker" of a garden. Two, I have been known to kill indoor plants. And three, Jon and I like keep a pretty tight schedule. So by now you're probably wondering how the garden is surviving and I am pleased to report that there is a very healthy vegetable garden growing at 814 West Maple Street in Palmyra, Pennsylvania.

Take a look at these veggies.



WATERMELON
We have about 9 of these pretty gals growing.

Zucchini
I hope this little guys is the first of many.

YELLOW BELL PEPPER
Any suggestions how I can use the yellow bell?

BASIL
We use this all of the time when we cook.

SWEET 100's
I got to pick a handful of these babies today.

SUPER CHILIES
The chilies are great for salsa and enchiladas.

GREEN PEPPERS
I dunno how we will use these guys. Maybe salsa?

EGGPLANT
This purple beauty will become eggplant parmesan for dinner guests.

BIG TOMATOES
Shoot! I forget the correct name for this tomato.
I'm pretty sure big tomato is not correct. :)

BANANA PEPPERS
Still don't know how to use this veggie. Any suggestions?


THANKS FOR STOPPING BY....
