Garden Update

It's still growing, LOL. I have made some changes though. The morning glories that were growing on the back porch were not doing so well, thanks to japanese beetles. So, I transplanted them to another part of the yard (what was left of them), and replaced them with various herbs I found on sale the other day.

My corn is not doing so well, but then I never have any luck with corn. Despite my best efforts, ear worms have found a home. Everything else is is doing great. My tomato plants are taller than me, but then that is not saying a whole lot, lol. I am stocking my freezer with zuchinni, bell peppers, and green beans, and I have more cucumbers than I know what to do with (even after giving many of them to friends and neighbors). I am still waiting for my cayenne peppers to turn red, but the plants are loaded with green ones right now.

Clematis

Just planted last year, its now blooming and making its way up the porch rail. I planted various flower seeds in the little yellow pots, but looks like I started them too late as they are not doing much. The hanging stain glass desert scene is compliments of my brother-in-law, who lives in GA.

In the Kitchen

Fried up some zuchinni the other day. Made a batter using self-rising flour, ground flax seed (as an egg substitute), and 7-up. The 7-up seemed to add a touch of sweetness.
