Spring Garden Update

Here is an update on Todd and Evan's spring garden, which I would call a success. Here was the blooming garden in it's Hey Day (It has really dried up now in the heat!).

 

Remember how it looked when we started?


We harvested a lot of tomatoes, green beans, jalapenos and corn. Here is a sampling of the green beans. Evan was so excited at how big they were he had to measure them!

 Evan's Sunflowers grew to over six feet tall. Here I am standing in front of them and they are way over my head!

 

Todd took some of the tomatoes and jalapenos and canned some homemade salsa. Yum!


Can't wait until Fall!

    Impressive! And that salsa looks mighty tasty. Off the subject, how did you decide on the name, Gwen, for that beautiful pup! It really seems to fit!

    Thanks for posting. Peace,
    Diane

    Hi, Diane: When we got Gwen one of my boys' favorite shows was Merlin, which has a female character named Guinevere. We all have four letters in our names, so we shorted it up and got Gwen.

    Yes, the salsa is quite tasty. I am lucky, my husband is great in the kitchen!

    Thanks for reading and commenting. ~~ Joan
