The haul from yesterday...
Okra and cucmbers:

Green beans and a pepper:

I also picked a squash yesterday, but I didn't take a picture of it for some reason...
I found a part of a shedded black snake skin:

It's good to have these around. They aren't venomous or aggressive, and they keep the rattlesnakes away.
Also took pics of the herb garden:

There's dill, cilantro, oragano, basil, rosemary, tarragon, sage and chives.

The dill (the yellow) and cilantro (the white) are insisting upon flowering... I held them back as long as I could. I hope I'll be able to collect seeds, but we'll see. And there's my Basye's Purple rugosa rose blooming in this photo too...
And one more... gratuitous pond photo:

Today, I'm baking challah. Last night's episode of Supernatural was so OMG! O.O it induced baking. So challah. *nods* There will be pics later... and possibly a recipe...

*does a little challah dance* Odd thought, but is challah vaguely similar to brioche dough-wise? Sounds yummy. :) Will you be taking pictures?
Ohmygoodness.. GARDEN! I love veggies; your garden and veggies look fabulous! Does Neem oil do anything for fungus, or is it just bugs?
Hmm... Not sure, I've never made brioche. But with some challah recipes, the bread after baking can have a somewhat similar texture to brioche, though usually with a thicker crust.
Oh, yes, I took pictures. *points to above post* :D
Thank you! :D Neem oil does help with some fungi, I think, but not this stuff. At least the "Garden Safe" stuff I got for the powdery mildew has neem oil in it (I think) and it doesn't indicate that it can help with this blight on its lable. A friend of mine suggesting giving tea tree oil a try, as it's recommended in a book she has a fungus cure-all. So I'm going to give that a try and see what happens.
*does another challah happy dance* Hee! Pitchers! *scribblescribblescribble* And recipe! You *know* I'll be writing this down for later on. :) Fank you.
Mom and I were up until about 1 AM looking at icanhascheezeburger; we laughed until we were hoarse.
You're welcome, sweetie! Enjoy it!
I love that website! LOL!
I still need to send you pictures of your backyard. I think they are on the iMac that died, and I need to get the CDs from the computer place that backed them up for me. I am fail.
Your garden looks awesome. But I've told you that before, haven't I?
LOL! Possibly, but it's always nice to hear it again. Thank you!
Yes, I would like to see it. If not in person soon, at least in pictures.
