How Does Your Garden Grow?

 Despite the extremely HOT weather we have had in the area, my flowers and veggies are soaking up the sunshine...and lots and lots of water...and growing taller and fuller everyday. I love coming home, walking up to my door and looking at all the colorful blooms. Everyday I check out my vegetable plants to see if there are any goodies ripe and ready to pick.
 My tomato plants are kind of taking over the containers and crowding my poor little pepper plants but the peppers don't seem to mind playing hide and seek. My 'Mighty Mato' Plant is so heavy the tomato cage is like the leaning tower. Lots of Green tomatoes on the vine but still no red ones. The plant that has produced the most so far is my Yellow Squash (pic. below.)




 To use some of my yellow squash, I threw this concoction together. Cut up some Kielbasa Sausage, Golden Potatoes, Onion, Green Pepper and Yellow Squash. Toss it in some Olive Oil, Minced Garlic and Lemon Pepper Seasoning. Bake @ 350 for 30-40 min. or until the potatoes are done.
So good!!
