August 2016
What was it?

The Apples

The Pears

Spaghetti Squash

Beans

Peppers

Tomatoes

Onions

More Apples this year than ever before. Boxes picked.

I picked 2 pails of pears from our small tree and that was after removing lots after blossoming and then again later.

Lots of delicious Peppers and Tomatoes being eaten and lots of Tomatoes are spreading out into the neighborhood as usual.

The squash vine was trimmed  as it was taking over and there were already over 20 happily growing. Lots to give away and they keep great in our cold room over the winter.  We cooked some from last year in the late spring and they were great.  The dogs really like it so we put a bit on their supper occasionally.

The beans grew lots but they weren't so good this year.  Hubby will get a different one next year.Yes the dogs also like a bean on supper.

Not too many walla walla onions. They are delicious and always go fast. Last year we had lots so I cooked and froze some for French Onion soup.


Decision Time!

I'm calling it a tie for the 
apples & pears so will call this the year for the  ... 
fruit trees.

My Husband has Visions of an Apple Pie in his future.


Here's another post about food and my husband !

Thanks for your visit!
