Fruits of our Labor

We picked our first zucchini and chilli peppers from our garden this week. You can see that the zucchini got away from us while we were on vacation, but it was still very tasty. There are about 10 more that will be ready to pick in a few days.

Scott was really itching to make some salsa to find out how hot the peppers were, so he whipped up a batch last night. I'm not sure if he could recreate his recipe because he didn't measure anything, but it turned out really yummy!! He made his salsa using tomatoes, onions, garlic, peppers, cilantro, lemon and lime juice, and a little salt and pepper. We shared some with our landlord and he really enjoyed it as well.

Our first couple rows of corn are taller than Scott and the other rows are not far behind. I'm really glad we decided to plant a garden this year. It's been fun watching it grow and even better now that we are able to enjoy the blessings of our hard work.
