I went out to the garden this afternoon. We had a comparatively large amount of rain last week and the garden is now completely overrun with weeds. However, it is also overrun with vegetables. I picked a bunch of green beans and I harvested the largest of the beets. That and a glass of wine is what I had for dinner tonight. I did cheat a bit though, I ate a pear while I was cooking. It looks like later this week I’ll have my first yellow squash.
Sadly the Brussels sprouts have succumbed to the little grey bug infestation. The sprouts themselves are compromised and I’m going to have to pull everything up and throw it away. Sad times. The lesson to learn here is plant winter crops for the winter.
