Gardens

I am yearning for my own vegetable garden. I want to be able to walk out of my kitchen, grab all the vegetables I need for our nightly dinner salads. This summer was suppose to be the year I got my act together and built vegetable boxes and planted seeds. I even have the spot picked out in my backyard. Lack of time has been my enemy. Perhaps potted vegetables will do. In the meantime I've been enjoying my mom's garden of herbs, onions, tomatoes, eggplant and a variety of fruit.

And my girlfriend Lauren sent me pics of her vegetable garden that is in full bloom bursting with edibles.

  1. We've wanted to do the same - and this year we managed to get some tomatoes and strawberries planted. Strawberries are not doing that well but the tomatoes are going crazy - I'm giving them away by the bags -- and they taste amazing. Love it!
