~Surprises Growing in the Garden~

This morning I went outside into the garden and found 
our grapes shining in the morning light.
They are always so pretty this time of year.
The clusters amaze me.

Love to see it growing from the kitchen window.
A patina bell we got awhile back on a trip to Arizona.
A silver teapot was a nice surprise hanging next to the grapes.
The zucchini are taking off
 from the heat we're having in
 San Diego.

Our pumpkins are starting to grow too!
Indigo Tomatoes

Black Pearl Tomatoes
Basil
Parsley...
Sage...
Rosemary...
and Thyme.

Love that song from 
~Simon and Garfunkel~
Baby Boo Pumpkins
Strawberries

Pretty Pink Strawberry Flowers
Bush Beans
The new area is filling in nicely.
It will be a beautiful day in the garden today.

  18. You have the BEST gardens!!! All your hard work shows - wow, amazing. Those grapes are really something to behold.

    I love San Diego's weather. My youngest daughter lived there 7 years. She came back because she just couldn't afford it on a hairdresser's salary. I am glad she's back but there is a part of her that diesa little bit with each winter season.

    Thanks for being such a sweet and loyal reader. Hugs.
