First Fig...

I love figs and have dreams of having a great fig crop.  Last year we had three figs and I was hoping to have more this year.  However, one of our fig trees, Giada, died earlier this year and I'm hoping that Mario is still inspired to produce.

Yeah! Broccoli!

Corn Vandals

Last week we planted 9 corn plants and one by one they disappeared from our garden.  This morning we only had 4.  We visited the North Market this morning, found more corn and decided that we were up for the challenge.  Below are some before and after pictures along with other things growing in our back yard.

Mary Ann took this picture of me from the kitchen window.

Before the security upgrade.

Darn Vandals!

Ta da!

My first blueberries.

My first raspberries.

The broccoli and brussel sprouts are going strong.
