Odds and ends

Here is a plumeria that we brought back from Hawaii. Hopefully it will take and grow into a nice tree. The flowers are used in Hawaii to make leis and are very fragrant. It will grow to be about 7-8 feet tall and next year we will transplant it into the garden.



The lettuces in our raised gardens are really full of leaves. We have been making fresh green salads for several weeks. Everything tastes a lot better when it is fresh out of the garden.



The tomato plants have taken over the planter by the garage. We except to have about a zillion come ripe all at once. We have 4-5 different varieties planted. More salad fodder.



When we are not working in the yard, we are eating well. On Friday we had a couple tsapura and
grilled them on teh gas grill. Usually we wrap the fish in foil and bake them on the grill but we decided to try something different this time. Along with a bottle of wine, we had a great meal.
