August Harvest


IMG_4849

What a doozy!

I harvested the following from both the St. Bernard Community Garden and the Woodlands Community Garden this morning:
  • 'Katahdin' and 'Yukon Gold' potatoes
  • one tiny (and slightly tasteless) watermelon
  • habanero peppers
  • 'Sungold' and 'Tomaccio' cherry tomatoes
  • 'Long Slim' cayenne peppers
  • a 'Cherokee Purple' and two other tomatoes
  • red onions
  • an eggplant
  • leeks
  • deformed, end-of-season cucumbers
Then I made home fries for lunch.



I am loving this weekend. The weather is gorgeous (back in the mid-eighties) and my lovely friend and former CA room-mate Crystal is coming for a visit! Enjoy your own weekends and this fleeting end-of-summer feeling.
