Baby Harvest

The many squash plants in the garden this season all started a rather cluttered rush of fruiting. Some of them stalled in their growth, and overall it seemed a good idea to remove these small ones and some others, generally thinning the plants a bit to allow them to focus their energy resources into fewer squashes. A bonus of this procedure… an early Summer squash banquet!

Earlier this week I made a very tasty bean stew with some beans harvested from last year’s crops. These will make a nice accompaniment.

    I assume Fluffy knows you can call in a drone strike at anytime right?
