One of our broccoli plants made a nice head that needed to be picked, and so we did that today.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Out of four plants, only one has produced a head. So soup is in our immediate future. Moosewood has a great recipe for just this purpose.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The soup recipe also calls for a green pepper and it just so happens that one of our pepper plants has made one.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

If you don't pay attention to a zucchini plant, in three days a small six inch long zucchini becomes a fat 14 inch long zucchini.<\/p><\/div>\n

So I guess I will be making zucchini bread today, as well as soup.\u00a0 The garden waits for nobody.\u00a0 Yesterday we went to the orchard and brought home some peaches, and a peach cobbler is on the ‘things to do today’ list.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Carrots, Swiss Chard, Kale, and small bunching onions are all looking very cheerful. The chard leaves are starting to get large, but still so mild tasting.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Finally some ripening cherry tomatoes. The larger varieties are still just green.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Cucumbers are getting sizeable, and soon I'll have enough to make a decent batch of pickles with the family pickle recipe. That will be fun. This one plants has 17 cucumbers on it which are almost all this size. A week and a half ago, they were an inch long and we were doubtful they would grow.<\/p><\/div>\n

The overnight temperatures are getting cooler, 36F and 41F the last two days, and so we moved some of our herb plants inside on the kitchen windowsill.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Basil (not up yet), Chives (not planted yet), Italian Oregano, Parsley, Rosemary, Thyme. <\/p><\/div>\n
