Garden update

I realize it has been awhile...

The tomatoes are starting to finally ripen. I've had to do battle with hail and blossom rot this year. Not a great year for tomatoes. It really doesn't help that I tried several heirloom varieties that appear to be more apt to get the blossom rot, split skins, etc. That and they don't seem to be quite the producers that the hybrids are. Ah well, they do have incredible flavor though.

I've also had scabby potatoes this year. Our cool, wet summer has not been great for a veggie garden. I managed to get a head of cabbage, lots of green beans, a few carrots, lots of onions, dill went crazy, tons of peas, and a few beets. I'm not good at keeping up with the lettuce and spinach. I do have a couple small tomato plants that were from previous year's seeds. They seem to be doing alright.

Oh, the tomatillos have done well this year. I'm getting ready to make another batch of salsa verde from them this weekend.

My big challenge has been to keep things from freezing this last week. Now if I can just make it another week or so until the tomatoes finish ripening so I can make the salsa...
