Wednesday

 Hi Everyone!

It's Wednesday already. We had a bit of rain yesterday but today looks very nice. 
Mr. M. and I have been craving something sweet. Something other than fruit. LOL
So I whipped up an applesauce spice cake for us. It is Kidney friendly but I did splurge and put a streusel on top. I have no recipe for you. I just threw ingredients in a bowl and baked it. OMG GOOD.
The garden is just about done. However, in the late month of Sept. I find, finally, Roma tomatoes. The first all year. I told you it was very cold this summer. They probably won't amount to anything, it's so late in the year for these.
also peppers popped up. Again to late in the year. I found 2. If they grow I'm sure they will be bitter. 
I planted some winter squash and it seems to be doing OK. This is butternut. Bigger than my hand. There are smaller ones growing too.

Also out of the blue yellow, summer, squash has taken off. We have eaten 4 of these and they just keep growing. 
So strange.
Also, cucumbers are growing like weeds.
I counted 14 on the vine that have to be harvested. 
The last batch of potatoes will be ready to harvest next week. I hope. They are still blooming, but starting to fall over. When the leaves start to turn brown I will harvest. However, it has been so wet at night and in the early AM that keep the leaves green. I may just have to go for it and harvest. 
Well, I think that is it for now. I have some P.T. to do and then I think I will draw today.
Have a great day and I hope your garden is still growing.

Qué buena pinta tiene ese pastel. Espero que los tomates sigan creciendo y los pimientos no amarguen. Qué suerte tener un huerto así. A disfrutarlo. Un abrazo
