Real Food – Gardening Procrastination Style

Posted on 30 August 2010 by MommyKnows

I haven’t said much about my garden, even though I made an entire category dedicated to it. It’s mostly because I didn’t put the plants in the ground until early July and this is Canada. Just a wee bit late (understatement of the year).

Nevertheless, I have zucchini! The plant is massive and there are dozens of zucchini on it. So YAY for zucchini!

Have you seen my Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread recipe?

The tomatoes may or may not make it, depending on how long the weather holds.

I have two pumpkins the size of quarters, but I think they may have a chance, as they don’t mind the cold weather as much.

Make that ONE pumpkin, I think the other one died.

I have onions, but I haven’t a clue how they are coming alone and don’t want to check and risk pulling a half grown one. I think they too can survive some autumn weather.

Those aren’t weeds amongst my onion, they’re herbs. If you believe that … well, I have some ocean front property in Arizona for sale.

On a different note: I don’t deserve this camera. It should be confiscated. Ignore all the noise in the photos please, I forgot to change the ISO after taking pics of the kids with sparklers in the dark. Really, someone come and remove the camera from my possession.

NEXT YEAR! Next year, I am going to put those seedlings in the ground in late May like I am supposed to.

Did you grow a garden this year? How’d it go?
