Apples and a Surprise

Apples, apples...

... so many apples that we still had to store several boxes in the cold room after giving a good amount away

Surprise, a nest : )

Snapped a photo of the owner of the nest - hello, there!

Everything is in bloom

Apple pie, anyone?

16 week old munchkin broccoli.

15 week old pepper.

23 week old supermarket pepper. It's funny how these look nothing like their mother/father that was a fat one pound bell pepper.

10 week old pomodoro tomato already has a baby tomato.

14 week old parmex carrot in a container.

Apples on the way

They're ballooning.

Happy Earth Day!


If you did something earth friendly today, Poof Tree gives you a special heart.

Cherry Blossoms at High Park

Brunch at Grenadier Restaurant. It was jam packed with enthusiastic cherry blossom watchers, including a very special boy that kept making faces at me from the patio. Watch it kid, your face might one day freeze like that ; )

On to the show! The view was absolutely breathtaking.

Another amazing view: looking up, a canopy of beautiful blossoms.

Looking down, a young cherry blossom tree. Seems like they're trying to expand the cherry blossom path.

Looking closer, Petit Budbud the ornament!

Looking even closer [ ' " ] < I'd like to move here

...and this is why fall isn't that much fun

What gives?! I just raked it yesterday!

Magnolia scale infestation

After ten years of loving care our magnolia tree has encountered its first (and probably last) problem: magnolia scale. It looks like the insects are eating our tree live.

Goodbye, prettiful tree

R.I.P you'll be missed

Things that survived the gruelling winter

I believe it's a bunch of green onion

The green, stringy vegetable that goes into mung bean soup

Apple tree is begging for a trim. One day he will look like Sam's apple tree!

Dug up some old garden photos

We're all hoping that our scrawny apple tree will one day look like Sam's bushy one

My uncle prefers the thin, hot ones now

One of my fav pics: fat tomatoes

Giant yam of doom!

We've also grown many types of beans, cucumbers, onions, squashes, and some other ones that I don't quite remember. New to this year are our organic carrots and freaky foods cauliflower, broccoli, spinach, and various herbs.
