Summer Garden

Our pear tree had oodles of pears this year after a hibernation last year. I finally found the trick to edible pears too! Usually I would pick one off and it would be hard dry and sour. Well this year I would pick them and put them in a bowl in the Kitchen in the sun for a few days then they would become slightly soft and mmm so juicy! Perfect sweet pears!

At the beginning of Summer Kevin and I went to the local farmers market and bought a few tomato plants. Some slicing tomatoes, roma, patio, and sweet sugar tomatoes. These were the first batch this season, including a cucumber (only two so far because with the heat the cucumber plant didnt make it)

These are my Patio Tomatoes (they grow in a small planter) Most of them did well, they are sweet and about the size of a clementine.

 I love all the veggies but Im sad I didnt get around to planting my herbs this time around. It would have been nice to have some basil and cilantro on hand. Something to look forward to next year.
