Weekend harvest

I have been busy the past few weeks.  We were up north weekend to celebrate our 1st anniversary,  worked out of town for a couple of days, and spent another couple of days away for a concert.  That meant my garden was a little neglected.  I still managed to get everything watered, but I just didn't have time (or energy) to go through and harvest things like I normally do.

That meant on Sunday I had to pick up the slack....and ended up with this

I gave up on picking cherry tomatoes after my first bowl was full, figuring I could lure my niece over to gobble up a good portion that are still on the plants.  And there were a couple more zuchs just about ready but I couldn't bring myself to cut them off since I already have 7 stashed in my fridge (along with 2 x 2L baskets of heirloom tomatoes).

Hubby says I am not to put Alpaca poo on my garden next year because we cannot possibly consume this much produce between the two of us.  Although that is true, I love seeing my fridge (and counter) full of homegrown produce!  Now if I could only figure out what else to do with all these tomatoes...
