| Everything here is from my garden! |
One of the few talents I’ve developed with time concerns my
ability to plan and plant out the right proportion of vegetables such that,
during the summer months, I always have enough mature veggies each day to satisfy
my needs. It’s a talent, because I also don’t have much that doesn’t get used. (Any
leftovers get tossed either into a compost pile or they’re placed right back
into the ground in an unused spot in the beds).
Pictured here is a day’s harvest the contained some carrots,
an onion and a cucumber that will serve to make a couple of salads. I’d already
harvested some lettuce which was stored in a crisper a couple of days before. I
also added some raw snow peas to the mix to complete a nice set of salads.
Throw on a little oil and vinegar and I’ll enjoy produce that came out of my
ground and which is also very nutritious to boot!
Speaking of those snow peas, I’m letting quite a few pods
mature so that I can replant them next spring and not have to worry about the
cost of seed. Interestingly, I’ll also have more plants than this year and
they’ll be free!
