My Garden

















My garden is starting to come in and I am so excited to start cooking. Today I pulled out some crooknecks and some huge zucchini that I am going to use in a pasta dish. Very excited!!! I also took a picture of the watermelon I am growing, which is teeny tiny. Can't wait until that grows. In addition I am growing a few varieties of tomatoes, which are starting to come in. I love to grow tomatoes because they remind me of my dad. He loved his garden and was always working on his tomatoes. He planned to spend a lot of time gardening in his retirement. Unfortunately, just a few weeks into his retirement he was diagnosed with stage 4 leukemia and we lost him less than a year later. So Dad this garden is for you!!
