Garden Update

I have really been getting into gardening this year. My new obsession is driven by the fact that I spent the spring at home waiting for Marcus to arrive, and we like eating fresh produce, so we're focusing more on a three-season garden. Anyway, here is a view of our garden.

 I think I got a little carried away with zuccinni and yellow squash. This is two days' harvest. If any of you have recipes for these, I'm all ears because we're already getting sick of them.

 Here is my beloved garlic. I harvested 30 bulbs yesterday. This is my second year growing garlic and my first real success. I learned a bunch about garlic last fall at a "Green Team" presentation at work. Hard-stemmed garlic is totally the way to go.

 Of course with gardening, you will have failures. We planted beautiful peppers started by a doctor Karen works with. The next day we had high winds, so our pepper plants are just stems now. I'm affraid to ask Dr. Ollie for more peppers because I think he would be upset that we let his babies suffer like this.
