My plants and flowers are finally starting to look good.  It's too bad they look their best is when the season is almost over.

Summer Plants 2012

Haven't written much, but I thought I'd share some of my plants and flowers I grew over the summer.

My Shade Garden

Time is Almost Up!

Time is almost up for our summer garden and it will be time to start the fall or winter garden.
The cucumbers didn't make it because of the heat.  We had some beautiful ones but they turned bitter because of the heat and no rain, even though we watered everyday.  We have learned from this first garden and hopefully will do better next year.
We are getting a late harvest on tomatoes and some beans.  Here are some Rainbow Tomatoes, Brandy Boy Tomatoes, Cucumber, Beans and Okra.

The best burger

This was a wonderful double cheese burger we had the other day.  We named it a Blow Your Brain's Out Burger.
It has two pieces of meat with cheese, bacon, tomato, avocado, and arugula.  Highly recomended for you to make one today.

Composting

My new compost bin.  I'm so excited about this compost bin.  It took awhile to get all the pallets but I know it was worth the wait.  I hate the thought of all the food we have wasted that could have gone in the compost, but we didn't have anywhere to put it.
