No photos. Sorry. Maybe I'll update after we have supper. It's some chicken casserole dish that's already baking.
We had a very busy week. I wasn't able to spend nearly as much time in the garden as I usually do, especially since I knew we wouldn't be around much late in the week and so I spent one day cleaning the house. And Mr. Big Food wasn't able to do his chores, either. So we were outside today. Nice day. Also, Daughter C is here today to take care of Rocky. (I spend too much time with Rocky.)
Today I picked
twothree watermelons (one is rotten so we're going to shoot it)- a few beets and
- baby lima beans
(I don't know what he's going to do with the beats, but the limas are going in a crock pot Tuesday morning. Limas are not called for, but we have too few to freeze so we might as well eat them.)
- a little French melon (not sure it's going to make the cut; we'll look at it tonight
- jalapeno peppers
That's right. We are pickling tonight. Pickling jalapeno peppers.
- and a nice batch of cherry tomatoes.
And I almost forgot the white winter radishes. I pulled a handful of white carrots on Thursday. We actually have a lot of radishes on hand right now. I should announce this.
That was satisfying. And now, while supper is in the oven, we will clean the kitchen. This will be satisfying in it's own sort of drudgery way.
I cannot put it off any longer.

Preparing to freeze some French melon |
The melon are
from Botanical Interests and they going to taste sooo good in January!Melon Charentais Heirloom Seed
Cucumis melo (Reticulatus group)
90 days. Charentais melons aren’t found in your grocery store — they’re too fragile to ship. A true cantaloupe, the fruits have smooth skin with light green stripes, maturing to creamy yellow. The delightfully scented, creamy orange flesh is filled with unsurpassed flavor. One of the sweetest rewards of home gardening!
Good day. Big life.
