Green beans and peppers

Image
We got green beans growing! Can you see them? Here's a better look. I'm also letting these gypsy peppers grow a bit more. Apparently they turn orange-red as they ripen. That should be fun. Summer is almost here. Enjoy the end of spring folks 

Fruits of my labors

Image
I harvested a couple peppers today. Woot woot! I chopped them up and threw them into the instant pot with an onion from a local farm. With the saute setting going, I carmelized the onions and added garlic, red wine and some premamde meatballs. I let that cook up for a bit and then added spaghetti sauce. After boiling some noodles, it came out quite delicious! The sweet peppers really helped balance the flavor.

It's alive!

It's happening! I got a pepper growing now. Should have some zucchini soon too.  Stoked!

We got flowers

Image
The peppers, zucchini and beans are flowering  I think that's a good thing. After they flower they start producing fruit right? Looking foward to that. I think I've got some pests in the kale as well. The leaves are gone from one of the kale planters. Oh well. Everything else is growing all right, although I have been moving the zucchini around. The leaves look wilted when in the direct 100 degree heat.

Rain means I do not have to water

It was rainy all weekend and got water fell from the sky again last night. I hope I don't get out of the habit of watering in the morning.
