I'm trying to get back in my own groove. I cleaned and worked my rear off in the garden.
I'm going to mow the yard and field today. It's horrific.
No, really.
I'll get photos before I tackle this.
It's terrifying. I should be baling this stuff.
I can't see Pig coming through the field...it's Jurassic Park all over again.
"Don't run into the long grass!"
Anyway.
God bless Sparkpeople.com for allowing you to add gardening to your fitness stuff.
And mowing.
Check me out..between gardening, cleaning and mowing I don't have to do anything...oh wait..core work.
Ugh.
Garden triumphs!
The caterpillars that savaged the Brussels sprouts? They didn't win! LOOK!
Microscopic baby brussels! |
The cauliflower that was gnawed to shreds?
Teeny tiny cauliflower! |
Ok, so nothing dramatic happened to the ground cherries, but I've never grown them before.
Look! They're like presents! Unwrap and BAM! A tiny little fruity gift!
Holy crap, I DO have giant red bearpaw manhands! |
Blue Table shot of the day |
Today's full haul..look look! PEACHES! |
Bah!
I need a live-in gardener..or chef...or better yet, someone to hang around until I get bored with a project and then they take over.
That's reasonable, right??
Enjoy your Saturday!
Before I read the caption under the picture of the brussel sprouts I thought they were bugs! We've never grown those before so I have no idea what they would look like.
ReplyDeleteHave a Great Day!

Yum... It looks like you had a great days haul. I like the blue table shot the best.
ReplyDeleteThanks for checking my blog out Samantha, I'll be back.
well, i'm sure Pig would help you clean up some of the zukes... :)
ReplyDeleteIt must be a very good feeling to harvest fresh stuff from your own grown plants and consume them...
ReplyDeleteEverything looks great, hope you have fun plans for the peaches:@)
ReplyDeletelove these intimate shots-

I'm envious of you guys with all the garden produce - since the strawberries are done, I don't have anything edible left in my garden... and suspect it'll be another month or so before I do.
ReplyDeleteGreat dragonfly picture. I like them because they eat the bad bugs, like mosquitoes.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your blue table and the items on it. Cool home grown veggies and peaches!
ReplyDeleteSam you cracks me up. How can I not love those teeny sweet baby brussels. Go babies!
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of produce. I'm like you, except I don't grow the stuff because then I have to cook it. I love coming to your blog. You always make me smile.
ReplyDeleteYour garden is producing some wonderful looking presents. And you gotta love sparkpeople.com! I love bing able to create nutrition labels for my recipes.
ReplyDeleteYum on those fresh peaches and wow on a great haul!
ReplyDeleteI love brussel sprouts! And, that is a cute photo of them in their baby state.
ReplyDeleteyummmmm....i LOVE brussels!! and those fresh peaches!! mmmm...you can't get a store bought peach that actually has flavor!!
ReplyDeleteeverything looks so good!! i had NO luck at all this year with my garden! good for you!! :)
I am so jealous of your peaches!
ReplyDeleteI know, my SUPER exciting Saturday night involved vacuuming and mopping, LOL. Glad that counts as burning calories because Paul is out of town so I haven't been able to run.
I want a blue table!
ReplyDeleteNice haul from the garden.
I share you feelings about having to do something with them. I have tomatoes to can today.
Our peaches have some kind of worm/bug/insect this year and every single one is brown and mushy. Argh.
ReplyDeleteI stayed home last night. I know, what a shock.
Your photo comments CRACK ME UP! Bearpaw manhands! Hahahaha!
ReplyDeleteYou go girl! I hope you kick all the garden demons. We ended up pulling out our squash and zuchinni's. Stupid blooms! I wonder if I could have superglued them on? hahah
