Garden Fresh

Now that we are actually paying a boy to water our garden and have a retired friend who has a background in agriculture, we are seeing results!

This pic is for Britta as promised. Brian said I made the tomato look larger than it actually is. Artistic freedom I guess.


And lettuce!


These are some indigenous beans. Not sure what we are doing with them yet.


Our first garden salad. Some of the toppings are actually from care packages, but the lettuce, pepper, tomato and basil are from our garden. Plus we had a peanut butter- lemon juice dressing made from the homemade peanut butter.


And because we thought that eating a salad might be too healthy, we decided to make French Fries (potatoes not from the garden...but we do have sweet potatoes growing so maybe we'll have to try sweet potato fries when they are ready).
