Veggy garden was a big success this year again. Went out this morning to cut down the dead corn stalks. started picking some of the pumpkins and squash that found their way into the corn rows. damn things vine all over the place and not uncommon to find them 15-20 feet from were you planted them.

I'm still picking broccoli, peppers and tomatos. Last night I filled a bankers file box heaping with tomatos. I chopped, diced and puree'd them up into 4 one gallon freezer bags and left some out for putting on salads, burgers and whatever.

Remember that little pumpkin from my salsa thread 1 month ago?

It's all grown up now, although not as big as I thought it would get.

I'll probably dig up the blue potatos today for making mashed taters for dinner tomorrow night.
Heres a pic of a blue potato off the internet. should make for some interesting mashed potatos.

mmmm, nothing better than vine-ripened tomatos on a fresh leaf salad.
