Fresh Summer Salad

Jeremy's version of a great salad that Jill would enjoy (and she did).

Iceberg Lettuce
Spinach leaves
Basil
Red Onion
Feta Cheese
Croutons
Bacon bits
Fresh Strawberries
Pecans

Lightly peppered, lightly drizzled with EVOO and homemade pepper relish.


And as a side note- basil and fresh strawberries (lightly sugared) is amazing.

Heirloom Tomatoes- Still Growing and Keeping the Bunnies OUT!

June 4, 2009
Our tomato plants continue to grow well. We did plant them a little early this year, so we have almost 10 little green tomatoes already. We also are using the Topsy Turvy to see if it really works. We have two patches of cucumbers, two patches of potatoes (red and white), two patches of beans, lots of okra. And of course 42 tomato plants. Not sure if they will all make it, but hopefully we will enjoy some tomatoes by 4th of July! There are three bunnies that have decided our yard is interesting. They appear in the mornings and evenings. Rheau has done her best to keep them out. One of the little ones is making it's way over to the herb garden. Rheau can't protect that. So it looks like it's time to pant a few extra marigold flowers. We've heard they keep away the bunnies. We will see. We will keep you all posted.

These pics were taken with our brand new Canon Powershot. Our last camera died. This one works great and we found it at Office Max on sale.
