What did you do in the garden today?

[Sally PB]

had to take a kid to ER to make sure her foot wasn’t broken.

Is she ok?

Is she ok?

Oh, yes thanks so much for asking Sally. Didn’t realize I didn’t say. Referred to an ortho, no weight allowed but likely just a bad sprain. Or maybe just a hairline fracture in the foot.

Glad she's ok @igorsMistress!

I made stuffed shells out of zucchini/yellow squash last night. We don't eat pasta so I sliced the squash thinly & baked them for a while to dry them out, then wrapped them around some ricotta mixture, topped with meat marinara & cheese & baked. It was SO good! We have leftovers for dinner tonight.

I have the canner out! I have blueberries & rhubarb thawing, going to make blubarb jam. I was going to make dillybeans but then I found like 6 jars left from last year. Doh! I thought they were all gone but I was wrong. So jam it is & I will blanch & freeze more beans for now.

My Romanian black chili’s are producing like mad, but I wish they would get on with ripening!!! They are truly ripe when they get red spots, I am not a very patient person, I am thinking about harvesting them now

Good morning Gardeners had to buy 2 cases of roma's.
Talk about sticker shock 40 bucks each.

I have lots of Roma tomatoes, wish I could share.

Your pasta sounds awesome. I will try to make it and see what everyone thinks.

That sounds really tasty! I may have to give that a try this week. Got some zucchini and yellow squash in the kitchen right now.

That is a beautiful pepper plant!

Oh my! I hope you have lots of beauties in there.

Thanks Sueby!

Holy cow that sounds delicious!! How long did you bake and what temp to dry them out?

I was gonna say the same, such a pretty pepper plant.

So I made 3 pints of dilly beans because everything was out, why not. One didn't seal. I made 3 because that's how many I make for gifts for specific people. What a waste, gotta do it again.

I made 12 jars of blubarb jam - a double batch. This stuff is yum. They're all popping now, of course it doesn't really matter if they don't seal - unlike the dilly beans. LOL
