Garden Update ~ More Harvesting

Hey all!
Man this time of year is so busy! Barely time to think let alone blog! LoL

But I'm here now and I want to show you the beauties we have hauled out of the garden lately!!

First up, the zucchini! We have a frost warning for tonight so we were forced to pull much of the garden yesterday. I was hoping we would have a bit more time but you don't always get what you want I suppose! LoL

So many!!!!

Next up; spaghetti squash! Again because of the frost we thought it would be best to just pull all these so they don't get hit.
Here's a video of me snipping them off and rolling them out :)

I also picked what leek we had, this was a crop I really didn't think we would be able to harvest at all. They didn't sprout for at least three weeks after I planted them so I thought, no way was anything gonna happen! Then bam! There they were! No complaints here that's for sure and while they're puny, they'll make a lovely soup!

And a garden wouldn't be complete without carrots! Carrots are certain a staple for us, something we will never be without in our garden, and since we grew six different kinds this year we really got to know what we're looking for in the perfect carrot. We just picked a few yesterday as the fridge is getting quite full and the ground is a perfect place for them to stay until we're ready for them.

These two are quite the pair!

I can't believe summer is basically over already! Breaks my heart! My kids are great at lifting my spirits though, they're beyond excited for Halloween and they keep asking me when it's going to snow! I'm like, ah, hopefully not for a LONG LONG TIME. LoL

Anyway, I'll be heading out east next week so I'll get to show you all a different view then!

Take care!
