No Green Thumb Here

If you could see my flower pot sitting on my patio table you'd agree that I really don't have a green thumb. I'm always questioning when to water and how much to water. In fact, Matt came home today from work and the first thing he asked was, "Um, what's with that flower on the table outside?" In other words....you should either help that thing or get rid of it:)


Well, thanks to my parents we planted a few vegetable plants because we have the space in our flower beds to do it. Somehow they are doing great!


Our tomato plants look great...they are loaded already. Due to a very bad wind/thunderstorm last night they were pushed down some but I think they'll be fine. We also have green pepper plants, cucumber and zucchini.
And here is our first cucumber!! We picked it today and the kids thought it was great...oh and they thought it was a pickle:) Looking forward to some fresh veggies!

  1. I am so jealous! I miss easy gardening in Ohio. Desert gardening is tough. I had a tomato plant about to yield tomatoes and killed it. It absolutely broke my heart! Only kitchen herbs here. :(. Enjoy your veggies!
