My garden this year is completely surpassing my original expections. When I was first placing the delicate little plants into the ground I really didn't have high hopes. My previous attempt failed pretty miserably and didn't really believe this year would be much, if any, better. I was wrong. Very wrong, and I am thrilled! I should have some very fresh veggies atop my dinner plant and in my salads very soon. I am practically bursting with anticipation. I am having so much fun going out to check and work on the garden every single day. It's so fun when you can see a difference in even just one day. It really does grow that fast. I greatly underestimated how well these veggies would do and how much space they would take up. But I suppose it is better to have than over the opposite problem. :)

Your vegetable patch looks pretty as well as productive ! Those tomatoes and peppers look like they are going to make really delicious salads - and the little yellow squash looks very cute ! As you say it's amazing when it all takes off !
Those look AMAZING! You have done so well, I'm so proud of you! I was excited about the fractional success I've had on my little projects and am too embarrassed to even post my pics after seeing yours!
Well done... when should I be coming over for dinner? ;)
Thanks, Sally. :) The tomatoes on the side have really started to take off, even just since I posted the pic. Lots of new blossoms and I've been out tap tap tapping them every day! I think I actually got that tip from your blog. Hope it works half as well for me!
Midnight Mama, thank you! I'm sure you have nothing to be embarrassed about. I do hope you post your pics! Can't wait to see your successes. I will let you know when dinner is ready! Hehe. (P.S. My herbs are still going strong!)
The green pepper looks really yummy! I would love to cook it for dinner today! LOL. The green beans look great. Your garden looks really good. The sunlight is enough, weather is good everything will definitely be good.
Thank you, Rose Silver. The little green peppers are getting bigger slowly but surely. Just a little too slowly for my liking! Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to comment. :)
