The Bright Side



Of an impending first frost. You get to pick all the tiny little baby squashes with the flowers still unopened on the end and saute them with garlic...in butter of course. With home grown roast beef and the boss's signature Cole slaw it was quite a feast...all thanks to the weather.

    Ah,lucky you. We had a plague of
    voles all summer. Beans:wiped out.
    Ditto squash and tomatoes and parsley and caraway and potatoes!
    Even with a feral cat around the house and traps!
    Maybe next year.....

    Dani, they were! I have the kids hunting down that milk weed seed for you...maybe today...

    Joated, lol, this was a funny squash, an old fashioned Italian zucchini. It ran all over the garden, but the fruit kept falling off. Now that it is fall it set dozens of them. they are the sweetest squash I have ever tasted

    Rose, now that is an awful shame! It was a tough growing year anyhow, with too much rain, but that is just over the top.Deer get our stuff sometimes...and bunnies...and woodchucks, but so far no voles.
