Come On, Eat Those Veggies.


We love eating our veggies...especially in the form of 
Chocolate Zucchini Cake!
or ... Carrot Zucchini Cake mmmm.

A nice morning for baking



So far we have only been harvesting some tiny little 'maters ... 
and they have been
very sweet and tasty.  
Last night, Mark came in with this funny little guy 
and we just don't have the heart to eat him!
Don't you just love it when produce just
morphs into something that makes you laugh
right out loud? Nature has a way of keeping us in awe.
From sunsets to honey bees, from the ocean to 

fredrico

Isn't he the cutest thing ever?? 
And very photogenic!
And speaking of fruits & vegetables, we came across this
 tasty item at our beloved farmers market ...
Yes, it does read  Chocolate Raspberry Jam
and it is very tasty on warm toast.
What's growing in your garden this year??

I don't have a garden this year and CLEARLY I am missing out. My kids are going to love these pictures.

It is shaping up to be a great garden year isn't it? Chet and I loved your little tomato buddy...and no I don't think you should eat him.

How about a recipe for that candy covered cake?? Looks amazing! How did your tomatoes get red so fast? Mine are still green. Maybe they were just planted a little late. Love the pics.
