First fruits!

[rivka]

Here's the very first harvest from our courtyard garden:



Two grape tomatoes and a miniature red bell pepper. Yum.

We have a substantial crop of small green peppers waiting to ripen, and a smaller but still lovely collection of green tomatoes. And one exciting green pendulum hanging from the midget muskmelon vine. It's about the size of my fist right now; I understand that they grow to approximately softball size. I am excited.

Aw. An Alex-sized salad!

(My tomatoes are still little green balls (or blossoms), and the cucumber and sugar pumpkin plants are just starting to get big - but I'm harvesting and eating about a cup of raspberries a day; given my passion for raspberries, this makes me remarkably happy!)

And they match! How neat that your garden is producing!

I'm suddenly harvesting a bunch of Romas, and the basil is going absolutely wild. I'm thinking I'd better get some fresh mozzarella soon, because there's no point in a Caprese salad unless it's made with homegrown tomoates :).

And the beefsteak tomato plants are starting to fruit like crazy. Yay!! And I'm going to have to give away mint.

Marguerita pizza!
