harvest time.

{sorry it's been quite a while since i last posted. but my life is just really uninteresting. case in point: this post is about our vegetable garden... again.}

it's finally time for us to begin picking things from the garden! hooray!

the first thing we got was a jalapeno a few weeks ago. turns out, it was a hot one, at least according to austin's and ben's faces.

we've also cut a lot of spinach from the garden already.

we've used it for salads, margherita pizzas, and fritatta.

just yesterday we cut a giant head of broccoli off and used it in hummus and veggie wraps for dinner. yum.

we've got three more big bunches of broccoli that we just cut that we froze for use in dinners later.

{please enjoy my awesome photography skills that make this brocolli appear to be this odd shade of blue}

we're also about to be up to our ears in corn... get it? ears? corn? no? anyway.

i think at last count there were over 50 tomatoes growing on our three plants. too bad i don't like tomatoes...

my cucumber plants are taking over the whole garden and we've got a few itty bitty cucumbers growing.

and our beans are finally starting to climb up the corn stalks. we'll probably drown in green beans by the end of the summer.

our beets are busting out of the ground.

and now {unrelated to gardening} a few photos i've not shared yet.

ben and austin... post jalapeno burn.

so yeah. that's my life currently.

{p.s.- i wrote this post almost a week ago. and i never got all the pictures uploaded. because i'm lazy. but i finally did it. so there. but currently, my life is actually quite exciting because KASEY IS HERE!!!!}
