Rescued bunch


Here are few pots which could stay in the basement for winter. Oregano in small pot is from this small survived plant. I hope they do well in the basement before seeing any sunshine next year. Other two pots are Mint and Jasmine (which never had any blooms so far).

Jack-o'-lantern and its making...


My 4 year old and I carved a pumpkin together for the first time and it was lot of fun and we were so happy to see it glowing in dark.

My daughter and I had a wonderful weekend painting and drawing on the pumpkins, first one is with my help but rest are her creations and her captions. We have a big one to work on soon.

Harvest Monday...

Eggplants are the best this year, I got 3 big ones last week. We haven't got the frost and I have small to medium sized ridge gourds on the vine which I am planning to get tomorrow so that they won't get affected by nighttime 30s which are expected this week. Please visit Daphnes Dandelions to see what everyone is harvested.

Preserving Tomatoes

I do some vegetable gardening but I don't grow a lot that I need to preserve it, but today while visiting Wilson Farm for grocery, I saw that they had locally grown tomatoes on SALE, so got them and dehydrated a bit in oven and made paste out of them for freezing. I also had to freeze some whole tomatoes for future use.
