Breakfast from the gardens

Rob and I always like to do something special for breakfast on the weekends. But this morning, we had very few groceries. (we need to go shopping!) We had 3 eggs and some juice, and no bread or milk. But, we did have a garden! I went out and picked some green peppers and made a skillet with some cheese and about 1/2 green peppers and 1/2 eggs. It was delicious. I don't get a ton of vegetables from the garden, but it is fun to have those opportunities!

More veggies

Well I've gotten 3 bowlfuls of beans from the garden so far this year -- but I'm learning a few things as I go:

1) Pick beans early! I'm still picking them a little late, and they get rather fibery!
2) Buy the stringless variety!! Some seem to be fine, but others feels like eating floss!
3) Watch for sunlight! My cucumbers last year were awesome, but this year they are small and everything associated with them (leaves, fruit, etc) is yellow. I think it is too much water and not enough light. Those rasperries are blocking the sunlight!

But I am getting some peppers -- I planted all the colors, but so far all we have is green!
