So Many Vegetables (!!)

Abundance of veggies right now -- but slowing down. I'm pulling a bunch of plants next week and starting the second summer planting.

But how to use the veggies? Everyone I see gets some and still too much for me to eat.

JalapeƱo hot sauce with honey. Easy, not too hot and a little sweet.





Coriander for spice and to plant more cilantro. I got a lot of seeds.





Roasted cherry tomato salsa. Great flavor, but a little too much tomato skin and seeds for my liking. A fellow gardener suggested salsa to use up some of the tomatoes. I had it on fish yesterday. I wonder if I puree it more if I'd like it better ... hmmm might whirl it in the blender today.






Garden veggie chop -- tomato, herbs, cucumber, pepper and added watermelon and feta with lime. I don't normally mix watermelon in a salad because I'm a watermelon purist, but a friend suggested and she was spot on. I might need to make this again.







Bees are working ...




The couple flower seeds I planted finally bloomed.




Garden in a nutshell. I planted new cucumber varieties yesterday and then we had a rainstorm to end all rainstorms. Hope the seeds survived. 

I'm feeling a bit better. Some of the strange symptoms are going away. That's the good news. Bad news is I'm neck deep in anxiety again. Good lord. Story (pity party) for another day. Working on this too. I hope today takes a number of things off my worry (not actual worries) list.

Happy Friday. Later gators.
