So after this whole summer NOTHING- Now all of a sudden my whole yard is in bloom (or most of it is)- Today Gaby and I picked a basket full of tomatoes!!! And there are many oranges and greens on the vines. I think by the weekend I'll be able to can my first batch of maters!!! I also cut our first eggplant off the vine. It is purple and gorgeous!
Then after picking those maters I travelled around to the front of the house and saw an 
explosion of jalapeno peppers- Matt's mouth is salvating about these!! I had planted a bunch of different hot peppers, but forgot the ornamental grasses take over--- so a few plants adapted and grew through the grasses. We have buds on them!! I am so excited to see what they are!

We have a new Eggplant starting and several other buds on that same plant!! Our Cabbages are looking quite swiss-cheesey, but I am hopeful that I'll still be able to eat them!
I purchased three mum's yesterday and am photographing them and posting them so maybe I'll be able to say in a year or so that I actually didn't kill them!!! I bought one bright yellow, one
purple with yellow centers and one called salsa- it is bright red with yellow centers. I hope to buy more, but we'll see how these ones do first.......
