July 29, 2008 The dreaded garden


We've been watering it weeding it, picking things and it has gone crazy. The corn has been blown over and managed to stand itself back up more times than we can count, but we'll eat good this winter. The beans have been producing like they are on steroids and we've got tomatoes that I kid you not have to weigh 4 to 5 lbs each. I should be able to get 1 jar of salsa out of 1 tomato. They are really starting to turn red. We've got 30 some plants and guess what. I'll be canning them this weekend. I'm getting sleepy just thinking about it. We've been getting a few here and there but there are a ton getting ready to turn. Hopefully I'll have more peppers by this weekend too. What am I thinking. LOL I'm sure I'll have more peppers. If not, I'll use the ones that I canned the other night or the ones that I'm going to be canning tonight. I'm going to give bell peppers a try. I found what sounds like a yummy recipe for them.
