The past two weeks at the Bee Family Garden have been more of the same. More blooms, more fruits, our first harvest of one very rotund cucumber, and more waiting and scrutinizing.
I haven’t been too great about plucking the suckers from my tomatoes, so they are getting a bit wild and unruly these days.
But productive…
Zinna blooms, and cucumber blooms, and sweet pepper blooms (but no fruit yet).
Beans and Basil are downright prolific!
Cukes are lookin’ good..
And some friendly faces top it all off.
I’ve also tried a second round of pickling, using a different recipe without vinegar, and just a fraction of the spices. They turned out much closer to what I was hoping for, though I’m still not an expert pickler. All the experience has been quite delicious so far, though!
FYI: In case you were wondering, Jeff chose tonight’s blog title.
