The beans I can't wait for. I LOVE fresh picked beans for dinner, in salads, as a side amoungst my veges, a little butter, a little S&P, they are so yummy, and so much nicer home grown. And hopefully one day the kids will agree and start eating the damned things!
Here's one of our strawberry bushes. For so long they have only popped out one or 2 now and again, but check this baby out. I've got babies everywhere. I will definitely get an updated piccy when its covered in the delicious little morsels. I might even be able to make some yummy dessert if I can beat the kids before they scoff them all on me.
And lastly my pretty zucchini flowers. I was trying to grab a pic with the bees in them but I scared them away (big scary thing that I am). The thing is I seem to have lots of boy flowers, and no girl ones. We've discovered too much water does that with pumpkins too, so am thinking this 10 inches of rain we've had over the last couple of weeks is making my plants a little testosterone happy at the moment (not to mention my back yard boggy and smelly). However, the milk spray I used has definitely helped with powered mildew, which ravaged my last crop of squash and cucumbers. Hopefully this time we will get some to eat. (Mmmmmmm.... I'm dreaming of crunchy home grown cucks.)
