How Does Your Garden Grow?



Life with the Kennedys is slightly askew.


Lots of tiny tomatoes which were delicious in salad.


The peppers don't seem to be getting any bigger


The cucumbers look more like gherkins than cukes.


Some more zucchini. We had two this week which I used in Jan's Rustic Rainbow Ratatouille recipe. Delicious!


Do you hear the grasshopper which is at your feet?


Two little bunnies, Cadbury


and Marzipan.


The new lighting

    1. Himself only planted a couple of plants. The plants aren't looking too good, either. The leaves are yellow and turning brown. Too much rain? Not enough drainage? Too little rain? Who knows?

    1. The bright lighting is great. Since we live in a rural area, there is little to no street lighting except at cross streets. We've been known to drive by the house if we've forgotten to turn on the lights 😺 I don't think the squirrels or the chipmunks have noticed the vegetables. Good for us!

    1. The color is Benjamin Moore Denim, as close to Wedgewood Blue as I could get. Jan’s recipe is awesome and easily customizable. I added mushrooms and skipped the garlic and onions

    1. The new little bunnies 🐰 🐰 are so cute. They run around, chase, play with each other, and eat the weeds

  6. Your garden grows a lot better than mine. Loving the new lighting and those "refreshed" steps. Too bad about the lack of zucchini and peppers. It's a learning curve, I guess, but at least you had tomatoes, which is great and a good recipe for your two zucchini from Jan's site, too.

    1. The vegetable garden seems to be a hit or a miss. In a way it's good that we aren't producing 30,000 lbs of something as there's only the 2 of us to eat it.
