One Month's Growth

Our Desert Garden is now at a little less than one month's growth and today we harvested our first cherry tomato. It looks as though we should have a green bell pepper within another week or so. We also have the start of our first beef steak tomato. The corn is a good 16 inches tall as well! We can also see the beginnings of our squash and the peas are starting to really come along. I feel it won't be too long before we are eating something from the garden almost every day! (click pictures to enlarge)

Strawberry Shortcake on the Way!

It's starting to look like it's almost time to break out the shortcake and cream! Looking pretty yummy! I think about another week and the strawberries will be ready for harvest. I can hardly wait!
