Home Grown Garden


We worked on a vegetable garden this year. Stef and I battled over what should be grown. I wanted beets to make a soup, but she planted honeydew suspiciously close. Soon all the beets were lost beneath a sea of melon vines.

We eventually picked our first melon from our garden this week. Ella was very excited to try it. It tasted great, but was smaller than store bought. We let some go too long thinking they were not big enough to be ready yet. Those ones sucked. But when they were picked well, nothing is as good as home grown.
