We've started enjoying some of the vegetables growing in our own backyard. Luca has been very helpful, watering the plants with Daddy and helping with the harvest. We've actually had more than we can eat (e.g. last week we had 6 heads of lettuce mature at the same time)...I need to do better planning next year and also be a little less lazy about cooking.
Here's a small sample of what's growing:
Sugar snap peas (incredibly sweet, so much better than the mealy peas from the grocery store)
A variety of lettuces, plus onions, chives and garlic
Some bok choy and broccoli
Broccolini - these have since become incredibly overgrown
Luca helped harvest the broccolini in his red pail
The bok choy harvest
Vegetables - chopped and ready for a tofu stir fry
The final dish...with a good portion direct from the backyard
