Yes, they are!! Check out what I harvested today:
How yummy do they look?!? And there are a bunch more that weren’t quite ripe yet, so I left them for a little bit, but I should get back out there and grab them before one of our furry neighborhood animals decides that they want a snack.
And I added some of that basil to tonight’s dinner salad and it was absolutely delicious with the tomatoes. My husband doesn’t like either tomatoes or basil — he just does not know what he is missing! And that zucchini/summer squash is still growing out there. I know that I should pick it, but I have a dilemma — let it continue to grow so it’s huge, or wait too long and then someone will eat it, or it will be all seeds inside and crappy tasting. I’m not sure what I am going to do yet. I will have to do some research.
And there’s four jalapeño peppers that are almost ready to be picked!! I am so happy that the garden is producing! Now we just need to remember to eat the veggies before they over-ripen!
