Gardening Report

It may be December, but our Garden is thriving. Actually, it's thriving because it's December. We have eaten countless salads taken mostly from our plot. We focused on salad greens for our fall garden. Come springtime ... ooh, the possibilities.

Meanwhile, a few pics ...

Carrots!


Escarole!


Mizuna!


Little Gem Lettuce!


Dark Lollo Rosa Lettuce!


Red Sails Lettuce!


Endive!


Swiss Chard!


Collard Greens!


Kale!


And the two pea transplants are doing fine.


Broccoli! Lord, the broccoli!



It may be Texas in December, but we have snowflakes in the Garden.


A side benefit of watering other people's plots is that they
invariably tell you to help yourself to some of their fruits and vegetables. So I don't mind watering for other people. At. All.


The Garden is going gangbusters. All 25 plots are taken, and most are exploding with vegetables. Very awesome. Happy holidays, everyone. Here's to a prosperous, peaceful and delicious 2011!
