Harvest

It has been fun having a garden this year. We planted corn, carrots, onions, peppers, zucchini, cantaloupe, honeydew, peas, and tomatoes (Early Girl, grape, cherry and yellow pear.) Some things did better than others, but we were happy that we got at least some of everything to grow.

Last weekend we harvested all of our corn - 15 stalks gave us over 3 dozen ears of corn. What we didn't eat we cut off the cob and froze - we got almost 2 gallons of corn! It will be fun to have a taste of summer in our winter soups!

Also last weekend we made fresh salsa.... (Quentin couldn't wait - can you see his spoon in the picture?)



And we harvested lots of tomatoes - Yummy!

We've been enjoying some of our cantaloupe, and tonight for dinner we had fajitas made with our zucchini and carrots and onions and peppers. Oh man, garden fare is the best!
