Ready to pick this morning - Swiss chard, one blueberry yes one blueberry! Chives, kohlrabi, the first of slobolt lettuce - "slobolt" is suppose to handle heat, hope its not bitter.

Nibbling on some fresh bok choy and sipping on some coffee, and ya know, oddly enough it's not a bad combination...really Very Happy

I also ate a white radish that lite me up like Christmas! Man, I must of gotten some really old seed. Things are like munching horseradish root cyclops

We're expecting hot weather so this morning I harvested a bunch of head of different lettuces and a ton of cooking greens like kale, swiss chard, spinach, cabbage, and beet greens, as well as some radishes and garlic chives. Instead of my usual colander for harvesting, I had to use this bucket:

Strawberries and sugar snap peas seem to be finished now. Guess I'll be taking out the peas today and put in some more pole beans. Is it OK to plant beans where peas were?

We're eating peas, lettuce, cilantro, and basil right now and the kohlrabi looks ready. The bush beans, tomato, pepper, cuc and zuc are starting to form their offerings so it won't be long!

**llama momma** 6/28/2012, 11:04 am

Slobolt lettuce and beets.

Our breakfast What are you eating from your garden today? - Page 21 211713

was an omelet. What are you eating from your garden today? - Page 21 959632

The herbs (garlic, lavender, chive) and leaf lettuce sprouts are all from the garden.

Green beans, broccoli all together with some plain old butter, salt and pepper. A complete meal in itself.

Picked lots of beans. Froze some and when I get tired of picking them I have 4 kids who would love to have them. When all else may fail in a garden one can count on the beans to flourish.

Tasted like a bit of heaven.

Had a pizza tonight with basil. oregano, and hot peppers, I wish I had some grape tomatoes to put on it but will have to wait for another week or two...

For supper I had stuffed cabbage and Brussels sprouts leaves. Stuffing included rice and a little beef with chopped carrots, onions and dill from the garden. The sauce made from last years frozen tomatoes.... They were, oh so Y U M!! Very Happy

Lettuce and radishes for salad with purchased avocado; snow peas steamed with garlic scapes, dressed in olive oil and garlic/parsley salt; new potatoes steamed and browned in butter/olive oil; served with commercial grilled meat. Tasty. Nonna

Last night a friend and I had dinner and I made a salad from my cucumbers and cherry tomatoes with feta cheese and kalamata olives. Very tasty, I made the dressing and added fresh spices.

**Kelejan** 7/7/2012, 6:13 pm

Today I harvested a little each of onions, chard, kale, lettuce, snow peas and a few strawberries. enough to make a salad with hard-boiled organic eggs, and a dessert of strawberries with yoghurt.

some cut up beef.....a can of diced tomato & some celery from the frig....it was YUMMY!....

our five year old said....

*mommy whats the white things in the soup?*.......

knowing how he doesnt like to eat potatoes unless its a fast food french fry..... Razz

i said.... *why whats wrong?*....

he said.... *these white chunks are so yummy!* Shocked

....

i said.... *they are the taters you just dug up from the garden*.....

he was surprised as well that he loved them so much..... cyclops

so...that just proves that even a five year old can tell the difference from a store bought potato that sits in storage for over 10 months before it even gets to the store....to a fresh from the ground home grown tater! Laughing
