The Vegetable Bin Is Filling Up...


It doesn't appear we'll have to worry about a salmonella outbreak anytime soon at Casa de Harlan. Today alone, Emily picked eight Roma tomatoes and two Patio tomatoes to go with three more okra and a couple wee strawberries.

No, they aren't the biggest or shapeliest looking tomatoes, but hopefully they'll taste better. Meanwhile, I'm gonna have to make another big plate of fried okra or an inaugural pot of gumbo. The Cajun Delight plant is out of control.

It also appears our little squirrel buddy decided not to wait for one tomato to ripen. But that's okay, we're happy to donate one to his cause. But we'll have to start putting out more peanuts to distract him.
