Updated Garden Pics!





Here's some recent pics of my garden. I've added a couple new boxes and containers from last time I updated. So far with all this rain we've been having in AZ everything is really happy:) I've got quite a few rogue tomato plants popping up and my peas are doing great!

First Onions!


Here's my first onions!!! 3 white and a red.  I picked them when one was blooming and the others were popping out of the soil just screaming "pick me, pick me."  I clipped off the tops and am storing them in the bottom of my pantry. Can't wait to find a recipe to be worthy of my homegrown onions.  I started these from a starter bunch from my local nursery. I'm so gonna get some more of these. I use the baby ones as fresh scallions for other recipes.  So easy.

Hypermiling Mentioned on NASCAR!!!

So I watched NASCAR the other night for the first time with a buddy and they mentioned hypermiling.  It was near the end of the race and instead of the drivers taking a pit stop and losing race position, the drivers were shutting their cars off to conserve gas.  What a novel idea?  Now if professionals are doing this to win a race, can't we all attempt to do a little hypermiling to win the race of life???

First Strawberry's!!!

So here are some strawberries from my little box that I was doubting...but, it's producing now.  I must say that they are the sweetest, juiciest strawberries ever!!!  I plan on making a bigger patch in the front yard as it heats up down here in the southwest.
