Look at my pile of loot, that came from my garden this year! This is my first year owning a garden and I had so much fun watching my garden grow. I learned that I don’t need to buy so many herb plants of the same kind. Like for instance 3 basil plants, 3 rosemary plants, etc… I have oodles of basil leaves and can now make probably 10 jars of pesto. I would like to make tomato sauce out of these cherry tomatoes, but I think for this year I will just make salsa or some gazpacho with them. Next year instead of cherry tomatoes I’m planting larger ones!
My cherry tomatoes. I just love a tomato and cucumber salad.
Jalapeno peppers!
I dare you to bite into a habenero pepper!!!
And my darling cucumbers, I’ve already made some pickles. These will probably just be used in a salad or some gazpacho.
