Garden Monkey

Well, a little update on the garden...we have a huge watermelon, a tiny one, and a couple fist sized cantaloupes. Also we are happy to report there might be a Casper pumpkin for Halloween. The tomatoes are still doing their thing, and we had broccoli for dinner last night. We have Cosmo flowers that I have to clip for Pyper by reaching over my head, and we have a small second round of raspberries and strawberries. The neighbor's Italian plums are delightfully perfect right now, we dried a batch already because I'm too lazy/pregnant to make jam at the moment. Kale is still going strong as I let the lettuce go, and carrots are plump and long for the picking. 

The garden has been good for all of us, and seems like the only way we can get Pyper to eat certain vegetables. She'll only eat a self pulled carrot from the garden, she won't touch any other. 

She pulled a beet from the garden and we made an awesome colored frosting. 

More carrot fun!
