Waiting for My Fruit to Grow

It’s been about a month and a half since I’ve put up the upside down planters in the garden. We are starting to see some growth. I can’t wait for the plants to start producing yummy fruits. I’m excited to be able to eat some of the strawberries this time around. Every other time we plant strawberries they are gone before I get any. This year we planted two strawberry plants. Maybe I’ll be lucky enough to get some this time. I’m also anxious to try out all of those tomato recipes that I have stockpiled over the past month.

I don’t think I have anything to worry about when it comes to getting my share of the peppers. It’s just me and my husband who will be eating those. I haven’t thought about finding recipes for all of the peppers. Maybe I need to start working on pepper recipes now too!

More Tomatoes Please

The tomato plants we have having from the patio, by the garden, are growing nicely.  I can’t wait to taste the plump and juicy tomatoes that these plants are going to produce.  I was looking through a couple of my magazine and found a few recipes that I wanted to try them out in.  There was a sweet and sour tomato salad that looked absolutely delicious. There was also a very tasty sounding pasta sauce that I’d love to try and maybe even can.

I’ve been collecting recipes to try and the pile keeps growing.  It’s kind of ironic that at first I went looking for recipes to the tomatoes in because I thought I was going to have too many.  Now, with the size of this tomato recipe collection, I think I’m not going to have enough.  Either way, I know I’m going to love eating the hard work from our garden.
