Visit to "Harvard Museum of Natural History"...

It is one of the places I would strongly recommend going. I felt like a compact version of "Museum of Natural History" in DC with addons like Glass Flowers and Paleontology section, etc...

Happy GroundHog Day!!

Even the ground hog is out today to see its shadow and tell us that spring is only 6 weeks away. So, I felt I should at least write something today. Its been 2 months from my last post. Holidays, Vacation and my laptop is out of hard drive space (I used have all pictures downloaded to my laptop, now it needs little cleanup before I can download anymore) are the reasons for not posting. I do have several pictures to post. Coming up soon....

Fatteh

We tried our version of Fatteh with toasted pita, homemade hummus and yogurt seasoned with chilli powder, cumin powder and cilantro and it turned out quite tasty. Now, this will be frequent snack we may be looking forward to enjoy.

Frosty is back

Is the season over??

 With warm fall season we had, I still cann't believe the gardening season is over. I should have pulled all these plants and cleaned up before we had the Oct snow. I was waiting for the leaves to turn color and rake, before all those things happened we had the first snow storm. The support  provided for the vines was down with snow. The support stood all strong for Hurricane Irene but couldn't withstand the early snow.

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).

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.
