Welcome to Dana's blog!

My garden--asparagus, broccoli and peppers OH MY!

Mat told me there was asparagus growing and I was a bit reserved as he's not always accurate. And I was mildlly dissappointed as I started walking down the patch and seeing weeds. Altho his ornamental gourds are doing well. Then, at the very end, I saw them. The two most beautiful (OK, I might be a bit biased!LOL) asparagus stalks I've ever seen!!!!!!!!! I was THRILLED and now have hope that the rest may soon erupt from the earth! It's 2 years off before we can harvest them, BUT OH HOW EXCITED I AM!!!!!! Yes, over ASPARAGUS!

And Mat had reported huge heads of broccoli, last time I had checked there was NOTHING. Sure enuf, I saw that all 8 plants had heads waiting for me! We are having 2 steamed for supper tonight!!!!!!

By now I was convinced he knew more than I thought and sure enuf, long stringy hot peppers are waiting to turn green. And I SAW SOME BELL PEPPERS!!!!!!!! We haven't had stuffed peppers since last fall so what a treat that will be!

Needless to say, I'm thrilled about the garden.;) I get giddy like this every year tho. I'm pretty sure it's a sickness..........LOL

Yay on the veggies!

The asparagas we have here is delicious! It shure does grow like crazy! How exciting!

How long did it take your pepper plants? Mine seem to be taking forever. And my brocolli is slow growing. My mouth is watering over the kohlrabi tho and can't wait for it to be ready :)

how's your dish working?
