Tomatoes @ MindSay

I thought I would let you all see how my garden's have been growing with all that rain that we have been getting for a month. The first will be the flower garden and then the vegetable garden.

     At the top from left to right is, balloon flowers, galdious, red lilly, dasiy, white easter lilly's, yucka pant, and then my veg garden, peas in a row out front, cucumber's, tomatoes okra on far right and the whole garden at left center and of course all this could not be possible if not for my gardner Mr. B. What a man!!!!.

     I hope you enjoyed all the pictures and I so much wanted all of you to see what I have been up to. I did get over heated last Sunday so this Saturday I took it easy and let Mr. B move some plants around that have gotten so big that they have out grown their place.

     Now gardner's let me see your garden's. It doesen't matter if it is in the ground or in pots on the patio or even it they are inside. If you are growing it I want to see it. Now is time to show your stuff.

I want to see Pic.s

 

Have a great weekend and remember I am waiting.

 

The rain's have stopped long enough for us to get the garden out. Last week my husband as you can see tilled up the ground just before the rain moved back in on us. The face he is making is that he really, really, wanted to do this job. He is such a great guy. We did get some plants, planted before it down poured. The tomatoes, peppers and okra. Then Wednesday it stopped long enough for us to get the squash in, then back to rain. Now today we planted the carrotts and peas and I started broccolli from seed last week in some small pots and they all came up so and doing well so far. I well be able to plant them in the garden in a couple weeks.

So yeah!!! we finally got our garden in. It was a very nice day today. We had some clouds that came in and for awhile we thought it was just going to down pour but the winds came in and blew the clouds out. Yes it was a very nice day.I dead headed some of the flower's so it will promote more growth. And I found out the ants love the humingbird feeder. So towmorrow I will be cleaning it out and putting in new food for the humingbirds. Darrell has said there is something you can put where the hook is that ants don't like. I will have to investigate the matter. I haven't seen any humingbirds around lately, the last time I saw one was around the first of May. But maybe some are still hanging around here.

Well I hope everyone has a lovely day on Sunday. Enjoy the day. And God Bless you.

Pictures!!


Because Oscar loves his comments.


On that day, previously mentioned, we stopped at a local hole-in-the-wall diner. I had a gyro and Josh had these.


Some tomatoes I'm drying out. :D





I had to do this. :D haha. I loved how they turned out at yearbookyourself.com. (Ooooh! In 1968 I looked like Dr. Girlfriend from The Venture Brothers!)

On that note lets have some pictures to help out. :D

(Don't forget we are all individuals that have our own set of "being" & beliefs. Tolerance, love & being open minded is the key to remembering we are all people not to be slotted into labels.)


A small excerpt from when Josh and I made the best of free time while his car was being tinted. Woah, an arcade game from the early 8-16bit graphics ages!


Some tomatoes I canned. The whole cherry tomatoes & sliced romas I added thyme & sea salt. The others, using a bunch of yellow 'maters & one red tomato, I stewed then canned with fresh basil from my potted herb garden.


Josh's cat Oscar.



I have three days of pictures if I break them up in to small groups. Have a great day & don't forget to smile, laugh & love as much as you can!!!

Now they are saying that tomatoes may not necessarily be the cause of the big salmonella deal: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080627/ap_on_he_me/med_salmonella_tomatoes

Well, nonetheless I am staying away from tomatoes. 

Last night I went to a frozen yogurt place. I hope you can't guess what I am about to say next.  They had three flavors. Plain, espresso and....TOMATO! I heard some customers asking about the flavor. The lady serving said it wasn't even available yet. Um, don't ever make it available!

Anyhow, I had the plain flavor, with strawberries added. It was the worst yogurt I've had ever anyway. I can't even find the name of this place. I tried to google it. It's right by the Beverly Center Mall, but not inside. I almost got ice cream inside the mall, but it was a bit more of a walk. 

That's about it on tomatoes. I'm sort of grossed out by them.
