Song Of The Sagebrush

August 4, 2008

I was enjoying my garden this morning...

Posted in Sagebrush Ranch

UNTIL...I walked between the duck pen and the corn and a HUGE red racer slithered quickly in front of me, across the pathway, and into the corn.  The corn is SO thick that it's very hard to get to a snake once it gets in there.  Yuck. 

I did get a nice little piece of the Early Sunglow corn...not quite there, but almost.  There won't be lots, as that's the area the dogs damaged the most.  But about a week and a half out, the bodacious should be...well...bodacious!  The carrots are yummy...baby carrots, mostly.  If you want to keep small children busy in a garden, plant LOTS of radishes and baby carrots! 

The snap peas are just starting to produce, and the bush beans have a few flowers.  Looks like the pole beans are nearly ready to flower, too.

And for a tasty treat, try grilled zucchini/summer squash.  Split in half, brushed with olive oil and a bit of garlic...lightly grilled...AWESOME.  Especially my yellow scalloped squash!

Loving the flavors out there!

Blessings from the ranch!
