our precious little garden

8.11.2010



Never in my life have I been able to have a vegetable garden, aside from on tomato plant in a bucket on the deck. That doesn't count. This year, I decided that I wanted to plant anything and everything that I could. So we have:


 Broccoli - barely, because the rabbits : ( 


Green Peppers


 Green Beans


 Cherry Tomatoes and regular, large, Normal (?) Tomatoes


 Zucchini, and


 
 PUMPKINS!

The pumpkin "patch" (?!?) has sort of taken over a few of the other vegetable's territory. I feel bad for the poor little non-existent carrots, brussels sprouts and lettuce (which never grew, probably because of little rabbits? not weeding?..) Anyway I'm really excited for the kids to come over and pick the pumpkins this Fall! There are already so many little flowers!

Sunday I went out a weeded A LOT! I really don't mind the hot, sticky, buggy condition of a garden during the summer. I enjoy taking care of something and watching it grow, which is probably why all the sweating and dirt doesn't bother me.

This morning I am leaving for Hampton Beach. My mom, my sister and I are staying for three days because we have yet to take a trip there together. Hello! It's August already! So needless to say, we need a little vacation before our crazy lives take control in September. I'll be sure to share pictures ; )
