Got Veggies!

We got a little behind on our garden picking this weekend...due to other obligations... along with about 3 inches of rain that occurred between Friday evening and Sunday morning... Normally, Ricky picks the garden every evening.. but sometimes... life interferes with routine...

So Sunday evening... this was the daily harvest... yellow crooked-neck squash (my favorite!) and lots of round (globe) zucchini... yummy! I adore the beautiful colors of fresh vegetables from the garden... and how 'bout that blue Texas sky?We gathered, sorted... separated and bagged...
and along with ourselves... our friends, family and coworkers will reap the bounty of our harvest...

I wish you were here... I'd be glad to share... Drop by and bring a grocery bag...
Enjoying the blessings of rain and the garden harvest...

Fall Harvest in French Lique

We got ourselves a little freeze here early Sunday morning. It got down to about 30-degrees (about -1 Celsius) in the wee hours just before dawn... and it didn't stay there long... at 6:30 a.m. when my feet hit the floor it was up to about 38-degrees (on the plus side of Celsius, but I don't know where). The temperature was down there long enough to get the summer squash and the tomatoes (Ricky covered the tomatoes from the frost... but it didn't help with the freeze.)




So early afternoon Sunday, I went out and picked the last of the Summer Squash. This is it. I'm thinking casserole... yummy eatin' down here in French Lique...

ps... I seem to be on a food theme this week. Wonder if it has anything to do with Thanksgiving? Food for thought down here in French Lique!
