Green Harvest

What's for dinner tonight?
Tomatoes and a lonely cucumber from my yard and peppers from my Uncle's garden

Someone's been nibbling on the mini peppers

Garden: still overcrowded

Cucumber plants are prickly like a cactus and grow like they are on steroids

The bush beans are not happy about the tomatoes pushing them onto the lawn

What a bushy apple tree

Harvest Time!

3 month old Romaine lettuce ready to be made into a delicious Caesar salad

Tiny, round and cute 9 week old Tiny Tims

This little 12 week old guy fell to the ground a wee bit too early

So much fresh lettuce *o*

Sorry, animals

Bad news: I had to remove the lovely bird feeders. The birds were not a problem, but what came with them were like the rabbits and a family of mice that destroyed a portion of my vegetables, and an absolutely horrid odour courtesy of the overwhelming wet feces that undulated the fence area where the feeders were located.

They were quite popular, having to refill both feeders every two or three days.

Had a lovely time bird watching : ) got to see a number of birds in my area including American goldfinches, cardinals, red-winged blackbirds, house sparrows, American robins, mourning doves, and these brown birds (pictured above) that were quite vicious and always managed to keep the bigger birds at bay. Poor bigger birds always had to wait for their meal

Hello there, you should meet my bunny

It's so cute and fluffy! If only you were harmless, I'd totally let you roam around my yard

Salad and Burger

Grabbed a handful of greens from the backyard to go with a tasty McD cheeseburger : P

Beet

Oh, a beet

Teenage Plants

9 week old baby cucumber

Strawberries on strawberry plant from last year

10 week old Romaine lettuce. Earwigs have made them their home sweet home

There are several dozen 14 week old Pomodoro tomatoes already

Fewer than a dozen 15 week old Beefsteak tomatoes have appeared

Hmm. Pepper.

Beautiful Roses

So many flowers

I Can't Grow Carrots

Only a few out of a dozen carrots that grew turned out okay looking

The other ones were.. hmm.. pretty grotesque looking

Parmex carrot gone wrong

Oh my...
