Life has been super busy here at the homestead. The summer is here and there is water to play in, summer classes to attend, extra toddlers to watch, toy rooms to purge, etc. The garden is doing amazingly well, still no tomatoes or tomatillos I can officially see yet, but I have my first artichoke coming up, my pumpkin is out of control. I've harvested zucchinis and squash blossoms and my beets are almost ready to harvest. My beans are going strong and I should have a good yield in the next day or so.
With real life so busy, I wanted to simply pop in and leave you with some new pictures of the garden and some tasty food I've been making. Hopefully I'll get some more time soon to do some real posts!
