My Farmer's tan is really kicking into high gear. We've had an unusually hot and sunny summer. I am not complaining. And as a result, my work in the garden has been done under tremendously hot and sunny conditions as well. So now I am sporting some interesting tan lines.
It's been a while since my last post because not much has really changed - lots of lettuce and the zucchinis keep a'comin'. I have eaten all of the first round of radishes and the second wave should be up soon.
New fruits and veggies to add to the edible list are jalapeƱos.
Finally, and I'll take a picture later today, the acorn squash that actually looks like an acorn squash - dark green and oh so delicious. It has inspired me to begin my research on storage. If you have any recommendations on how to store the following, let me know:
winter squash: butternut and acorn
potatoes: gold and red norland
onions: mostly yellow, a few red
carrots
fennel (not sure if that's even storable?)
parsnips
Summer eating has really gone from 0 to 60. Love every minute of it!
