our first (small) harvest of peppers zucchini & summer squash

Alex and Blaine discouraged Mo buying five cases (the minimum, but you *can* mix types!). Wise, since we're out of canning jars (because they don't sell vacuum canning jars here; wtf?)

Green beans from my vegetable garden.

 

The brown grass is my backyard. Thank you, driest summer on record.

This is a new recipe I tried that my friend Lisa E. found and recommended. You roast your tomatoes til they thicken and get good and...you know...ROASTY, then you remove the herbs which will be hard and you puree the tomatoes and eat it. I had it on toast with cheese but if I was going to have it on pasta I would add some wine or red wine vinegar to it.

I can't describe the excitement I feel each time I see one of these is ready to be plucked free from the plant and devoured by my four year old who can't seem to get enough strawberries ♥

When my hands hurt from the cold while harvesting, I thought it should be the last call for summer veggies. Here's the take...fried green tomatoes in late December!

use your summer bounty!

From Fulcrum, another local band. Lisa provided a layer of "oooh"'s at the beginning of our song "Salvation's House."

I love favas. I got some at our Saturday market here in McMinnville. Organic! I didn't buy too many because they're kind of expensive. I have a whole bed of them in my own garden but they're way behind these. Just finished flowering.

From the summer garden...pickled peppers, tomato relish (chow chow), and zucchini bread and butter pickles.
