I grabbed some quick pictures of veggies that we picked out of our garden the other day.
We filled a whole basket! Green peppers, tomatoes and even a habenero, a seven pot and a jalapeno.
Has anyone ever seen this happen to a pepper? We haven't. We think it might be lack of water? We have been watering our tomatoes but not our peppers because the nursery where we got them said we should not water them much.
Look at this beautiful heirloom tomato we have this year! Do you notice the evil bunny teeth right in the middle of the side. The first time we saw the bunny in our garden, it was only palm sized. Now it's probably twice as big.
After we were done picking peppers and tomatoes, the boys dug our potatoes! I think we got about 10lbs. (but I didn't weigh them) This is a much better yeild that last year, when we only got about three too-small-to-eat potatoes. This year, instead of buying seed potatoes from the internet, we bought real, organic potatoes from the store and planted them!
Finally, here is some tomatillo salsa that Chris made. It is fermenting on our counter. Remember when I talked about adding fermented food to our diet (Kombucha is fermented!)? We are trying new ways. I also made a fermented green pepper and zucchini relish earlier this summer.
Well, I am going to try to add posts more often; maybe just take a quick picture and post a little blurb about it. I know the pictures I take aren't the greatest, but they are what I have to work with now. I don't have a great phone camera, but I also would never post another picture if I had to take them with my camera and upload them to the site. So, for now I am going with low quality pictures over none at all. :-)
Have a blessed day!
