Squash

Just a little garden update, most everything is growing nicely. The tomato plants a getting big and lots of green ones, there a a couple that are almost red! so we are very excited for that! We even have three cantaloupes growing so hopefully they will ripen successfully. And the Squash, Oh the squash we have gotten!! I have probably picked over a dozen already! The first few were big, but now they are a more normal size now as the plant is producing more. I also did not know how big it was going to get- the plant that is- so its being a bit intrusive on other things that were planted too close. I picked four just yesterday and then took them to church to give away, since I already had three in the fridge from two days ago. And I had no problem finding them homes. I used one and a half in dinner last night, and then picked two more beautiful ones this morning! I am amazed! I think I could sell these things, hmmm...
