08/08 Garden Day 84
The garden is growing but there is still nothing to eat yet! Well, I take that back, I did eat some lettuce. For some reason it always grows really tall, so this year I cut off the top and am hoping that more leaves will grow out the side. I ate the leaves I cut off on a tuna sandwich this week. Yum!

I set up a soaker hose, but not on the garden. This helps because it is still less time I have to spend outside holding the hose. I did finally receive my rebate from Lowe's, but haven't made a trip out there just yet.

The cayenne pepper I bought at Freddies has a little pepper on it, but it's still green. My other pepper plant has flowered so now it's just a matter of time until a pepper grows. There are plenty of tomatoes but none are ripe yet. There are ears of corn but not ready to eat yet. The eggplant is getting bigger and so are the pumpkin and squash! The additional lettuce and carrot seeds have sprouted now and look good.

I made some herb cubes with the mint and basil. But there is still so much mint!
