BackYard Harvest

[Scrambled Egg]

There's something wonderful about carrying food in from your backyard!!!!

WOW! Thats a lot of tomatoes.

Ok, that's just not fair!!! I planted my garden, but it has been underwater for the last month, so to speak,--we had rain almost every day for over a month. Sad to say, but I think my garden is done for.

But I have felt that feeling before. It is a great feeling!!! With that basket right there, I see diced cukes tomatoes, toss in an onion, and italian dressing. Let it soak--oooh I'm craving that now!!

LOL!!! Sorry about the underwater garden!!! I sure would share if you were nearer! All the cherry tomatoes are ripening but today is the first day I've had any color showing in the big tomatoes..I should have left them on the vine but I couldn't help myself and picked them..they will ripen on the table just as well. If I lived in the country I would plant EVERYTHING!!! LOL!!! It's just fun to pick and eat out of your own yard..not to mention the eggs in that basket! I got 10 from my 11 hens today, whoooo hoooo!!!

I'm jealous of your mators!
So far I am overrun with zucchini, we've eaten 2, put up 5 for the freezer & given away 6. I've picked & hulled 2 pts of peas and had a few spring onions. I am anxiously awaiting the tomatoes so I can try my hand at homemade sauce!

Ooo, so jealous. I got my tomatoes in late and they're just blooming. I'll be lucky to have any red by Halloween! I do have sugar snap peas, lettuce, swiss chard and green beans. That's about all I got in this year other than a few jalapeno plants which are also just blossoming. I had high hopes but they just didn't pan out. I hope to have the garden fenced in by fall so I'll be ready to plant next spring. That was another thing that held me up. Your pics remind me of my grandfather's garden. He had a huge plot in his backyard. I don't have that much space or sun but I swear I can smell those tomatoes from here!

That is a mighty fine harvest for a backyard garden, Miss Scrambled Egg!

I'm still waiting on mine.. few tomatoes and some cucumbers, onions and peppers ...lots of herbs now, though

All that hard work paying off.

My "spring" garden is just about done producing. We've gotten a lot of tomatoes, peas,zuchini, yellow crook neck, bell peppers, cucumbers, butter&cream corn, with pole beans next to the corn stalks. I'm hoping that we can keep the tomatoes alive until September and then by October they should start producing again. The peppers will continue to grow and produce and I'll just need to cover them in December and January so they don't freeze. I plant my fall garden the beginning of September...end of August if we've had a bunch of rain.

By October, I'll be adding EGGS! to my harvest basket.
