Sweet Summer Sensations, continued.

Ten days ago, I posted a note about my first artichoke. This is it today. It's almost as big as my fist and has six little siblings following in its footsteps. These footsteps will take it into the kitchen today, where it will be lovingly praised and then prepared as an appetizer to a special dinner Alastair and I have planned.

Not counting leafy contributions, this will be the first produce from our garden.

Let the games begin!

Hey sweets!

Fabulous site! I take it you're the Tomatillo and Alastair is the Gooseberry as it's native to the little island?? Keep up the great work. The Iris are stunning. Amazing to me that we both actually planted them. :-}
