That fast and September is almost gone. Too many things on my plate and the days slip by and it is now autumn. Wow.
I harvested my Galeus d'Eysines a few days after my last post. Look at these beauties!
The 4 plants had about 12 tiny pumpkinettes to begin with but inconsistent watering and not the richest of soils caused the pumpkinetes to drop. Still and all, it is said this is delicious squash. I am actually glad we don't have 12 that many pounds is probably more than we will want to eat. Stay tuned for the taste test later in the autumn.
I have begun to harvest the Italian green beans. I love them more than Kentucky Wonder type green beans. Tonight I toasted almond slivers in brown butter and with tossed blanched beans, salt & pepper and chives. Yum!
We are up at the cabin at Lake Tahoe. I brought the following from the garden: chives, garlic, rosemary, basil, Italian green beans, turnips, eggplants, peppers, tomatoes and figs. I also brought Comice pears and Jonagold apples a friend grew.
These pics are from the restaurant where we had lunch. It is perfect weather this week.
This weekend I begin with soil amendments and some fall planting. Looking forward to it while loving this down time at the lake.
