A Farmer's Dinner

We had our first dinner from the garden tonight: pasta with fresh marina! Grace was so excited to be eating our home grown food, and... it was delicious!!

We picked our best tomatoes,

and blended them well.

We picked lots of fresh herbs (especially basil, oregano and parsley!),

added them and gave them a chop!

Then we let it cook,

and cook some more (Grace stood over the stove the whole time!).

Our finished marina... so fresh and yum!!

It even got good reviews from Marion :)

We have lots more coming in our garden! The eggplant and squash are about to flower. Everything has at least quadrupled in size already.

The hot peppers are about 6 inches long!

We have tons of bell peppers!

The spring mix has sprouted... from seed!

...and our blueberries have started to turn ready. We have been getting about a handful a day.
