This really has been a rough growing season. The squash bugs have been unrelenting. I don’t know what attacked the pole beans. Corn was unsuccessful, tomato plants got leaf curl. We’re getting some bell peppers that taste very good, but the jalapenos were epic fail. Thyme and curly parsley are mingy.

The first Black Cherry tomato is about ready to pick. I’m thinking in the morning. Can’t wait! And it’s mine, all mine! I planted bell peppers, jalapenos and banana peppers and the bananas are the only ones doing anything.

Just sat down after putting up 6 jars of corn cob jelly. Not my poor icky corn but still it’s the only jelly I’ve been able to make this year.
