My garden is not doing well. At all. My zucchini and yellow squash plants are gone (really? who kills squash??). My cucumbers are dying fast. My green pepper plant produced one pepper. The red pepper plant produced one pepper (still ripening). The early girl tomato produced 1 tomato (still ripening). The cherry tomato plant has a few tomatoes randomly ripening, but not as much as I would hope.
So, onto why it was all worth it.... earlier this week our green pepper was ripe. Owen and I went out there and I let him pick it. He almost immediately took a bite of it, said it was crunchy, chewed a little bit and then spit it out! YAY! He's never eaten green pepper before. Today we had a ripe cherry tomato so I let Owen pick it. He asked what it looked like inside so I told him it was juicy and had seeds in it. He totally took a bite of it! He chewed it just for a second and then spit it out. WOOOOO!!!!

good for Owen
Way to go Owen!
I had a red pepper, but it fell off the plant before turning red... And so far I only have one cucumber too.
Go Owen!
Your garden sounds like mine--we got a couple tiny potatoes, and the one pepper that grew just rotted before it turned red. Boo.
I'm glad (kinda!) to hear I'm not the only one with a black thumb this year. LOL! I think once it cools down a bit I'll be planting lettuce and spinach. Hopefully those will grow!!
