First of all, the time stamp on this site looks to be waaaay off... It says that I entered yesterday's post at 6:37am or some such - as if night-owl here would even be conscious at such an hour! (It was more like 9:45am.) So, I'm going to start each post with the real time.
Second of all, I had originally typed a huge novel of a post about veggies I'm growing, how they're doing, and what I picked today. I'm thinking twice about posting all that, because what it all really comes down to is this: I love growing things that I can harvest. Whether vegetable or herb or flower, it's so immensely satisfying to walk out the back door, pick something, and either eat it for supper, dry it to use over the winter, throw it in the bath, or enjoy looking at it in a vase.
I picked just a handful of veggies today: one really nice purple eggplant, some sweet frying peppers, jalapenos, a little bit of okra. Oh, and two cherry tomatoes, two strawberries. Not yet a feast, but enough for a little ratatouille stir-fry for supper... and maybe something on the grill.
Farmer Jules is a happy happy girl tonight! Best get cooking.
