Lazy Days

Oh I have been soooo lazy with the garden lately! It rained enough this past week that I didn't need to go out and do any watering. That was kinda nice. I have had 2 nice snow pea harvests. Both I lightly sauteed with a little olive oil some garlic and then a couple of twists of sea salt and ground peppers. Mmmmm....We took 1 of the harvests to Dave's parents' house last night for dinner. Had that with some fresh fried fish that his father caught. Nothing like living off the land! :) The peas are also developing more quickly now. I think I have enough, along with the 4 carrots that I pulled out of the ground today, to make some fresh carrots and peas for dinner this week as a small side. But first we must eat the leftover Indian cabbage I made (did I tell you about that? If not let me know. It was sooo delicious. I'll have to post the recipe).

Other than a little harvesting of peas and snow peas I haven't done much else. Which is a shame because my tomato plants are HUGE and in need of the 2nd tier of their cages. It's going to be harder to get those on now. I might still have enough daylight to get them done tonight. I did pull the broccoli plant out of the garden. Its flowers were spent - not very good to look at any longer. I need to fill in the empty spots with some flowers. I'm thinking begonias and petunias to brighten everything up!

Oh - before I go. Dave confirmed a sighting of a rabbit in my garden with the corn and green bean sprouts. I knew it!! Grrrrrr...wascally wabbits! So, I whipped the Bob-Ex out and sprayed around the base of each raised bed. The stuff is stinky but it's supposed to smell like bobcat pee and keep the bunnies away. So far it seems to be working. :)
