Garden and a few other things

It's been a month and so I thought it timely to do another garden update.  I have some fun and sad news about the garden.  Let's start with the sad and then we can get excited about fun!!  The sad news is 1 plant is dead and another may be soon to follow.  The squash plant which I had such high hopes for has died.  I think it is the gardener's fault which is very hard to admit.  Oh pride!!!  So, little baby squash that was growing now lays dead.  The zucchini plant is on its way down too!!  I'm trying to save it, but I think it might be too late.  Sad news!!  It doesn't help either that when I call my mom to tell her, she tells me she has squash and zucchini coming out of her ears in their garden.   Good thing I don't live close or I may be tempted to sabotage her plants.  Just kidding - I really wouldn't do that.

The fun news is that I do have cucumbers, bell peppers, tomatoes growing on the plants now and can't wait until they get bigger to pick.  I thought for a long time I was going to have tomato plants, but no tomatoes.  But they are showing their cute selves.  Also, this evening I went out and picked green beans....yeah...look at those things in the pot.  How fun to have some success and be able to eat them.  Small victories...

Some other news is ADB bought me a blueberry plant!!  This may not be so exciting for some of you, but  I love blueberries.  Hopefully next year I can have some of my own.  Right now I'm trying to figure out the best place for the plant to go so it will produce fruit.  But isn't it cute in its pot.  He surprised me with it one day after he went and got some groceries from the store.  He picked this up as well.  Don't I have the best Hubbie!!
