Fruit of my labors

So last night we had the first bits of veggies from the garden. It all tasted so yummy. I had a few beets and some swiss chard. The beets were sweet and the swiss chard was just so yummy. Even Matthew had some chard and a little bite of the beets. I think its so cool to be able to eat food that I grew. I've never done that before. I'm glad i had enough yard to do it. Next growing season I'll try so more.

I do have a whole lot of squash getting ready to grow. Lots of blossoms and yesterday I went out and they're are some inch long squash out there. I can't wait for some of those too.

Yumm, sounds like a great garden. I would love to do that, but our yard isn't quite big enough for one, especially with having a big dog. Good job!!!!!
