Harvest Monday

"More of the same" doesn't really do justice to this deliciousness.

I probably have about two more harvests out of my radish squares. A few of these beauties became a gift and the rest served as peppery sweet candy for me. The tops have added nice variety to the fresh lettuce I've clipped for salads. I'm growing mostly Cherriettes, but a few pretty Sparklers also snuck into the plantings (not pictured).

Willpower abounded today and I was able to get a good chunk of peas into the house. Stir-fry, here I come!

Also able to harvest some Little Gem lettuce, basil, and dill. It's my first time growing any herbs whatsoever, so I am fairly proud of their production so far. I've only ever used dried dill, and though I've sampled "supermarket fresh" basil before, there is really nothing like growing it yourself. If we could only spread the love of this wonderful hobby/habit/lifestyle..

My boyfriend has terrible memories of weeding as a child, so though he's perfectly thrilled eating all of my fresh produce, I don't think he'll ever [willingly] pick up a trowel. I am working on sneaky ways to change that mentality.
