Garden Production Outpaces Family Appetite. Again.

I pick the garden daily.  A delicious torrent of tomatoes, squash, and snap beans pours into our home.
I eat tomatoes with mozzarella and vinagrette nearly every day for lunch.  We have squash and beans at supper.
Kale, cherry tomatoes, burgundy beans...soon I will enlist the dehydrator to aid us.
Potatoes are another family staple right now.  I've been slicing them into wedges, adding fresh rosemary and chives, salt, pepper, tossing them in oil and baking them in the oven.  We all like them.
This is the first year I've grown patty pan squash.  Cooked, they are firmer than yellow squash and zucchini.  I like them; they are good with onions and butter.
