So the veggie garden is really starting to take of - I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they all stay strong. Here we have a row of green beans (l) next to a row of fava or broad beans. Onions and tomatoes are in the back ground. I've left space in between to sow a second crop so we have 2 lots and different stages. Well, that's the plan :)
The grapes are no longer sticks! That's a tomato hanging in the background.
A couple of weekends ago we went to the Texas Hill Country. Yes, Texas is so flat they have a desginated "Hill" area. It also happens to be Texas wine country too so we sampled a few of the local wineries. It was not Napa, but a couple of them surprised us. Here I am with the Blue Bonnets (state flower) at one of the wineries.
We were wondering if our gecko would return this summer and here he is! He likes to hang out in the front yard and sun himself on the bench we have on the porch. Of course, this may not be the same one as last year but I like to think it is.
Mmmmm ... pizza
