Some of my blogger friends have asked to see photos of our vegetable garden. This is really FHFB's garden, he puts all of the blood, sweat and tears into it and I just pick the goodies, find delicious recipes for them and get to take photos of the beautiful harvest.
This might be a little boring if you're not into vegetables and flowers.
Let's take a walk!

Let's take a walk!
Zinnias
Sunflowers - lots of different colors
Asparagus, resting and going to seed
Tomatoes - but they're turning red now!
Butternut Squash - first time we've grown it!
Cinderella Pumpkins - I just love these pumpkins!
Blackberries ripening - they take a while.
Rediculous zucchini - I mean totally rediculous! I'm finding fantastic zucchini recipes in my Pasta Fresca cookbook. There's also a grilled potato salad that includes grilled zucchini, radicchio (and goat cheese if you want to add it) with a mustard vinaigrette from and old issue of Bon Appetit that's absolutely delicious.
I can send you the recipe if you like!
Red Onions - for FHFB's favorite tomato salad.
Basil and Green Peppers
FHFB dries a lot of basil and also makes fresh, delicious pesto for the freezer.
Italian Flat Green Beans - the best tasting green bean around!
Cucumbers and Beets
Herbs - parsley, sage, oregano, thyme, dill and pineapple mint.
Thanks for touring with me - I hope you enjoyed our walk through the garden.
Ciao, bella!
