I love my garden

For a first ever garden, we sure have hit the jackpot.  Last week, we had three days in a row that I picked 12 cucumbers a day!  We are averaging about: 2-3 bell peppers and jalapenos a week, about 1 eggplant a week and we have a TON of tomatoes that are on the greenish side, some turning a few shades of red.  Today we picked our first 'crop' of tomatoes...maybe a half dozen and they taste delicious.  I had the best BLT sandwich today....I probably could have had just a tomato sandwich and been quite satisfied.  Now I need to take up canning and pickling.
