    Fruit and Vegetable Pics

    Looks great. I wish my husband would eat aspargus, because I like it a lot. Still though, even if I did have an asparagus bed, I could always sell the excess.

    Three Potato Four

    Bubble n squeak inspired me to make a cabbage, carrot, onion and garlic fry up. Nomnomnom...

    Another big harvest - Grapes

    I'd check their flavor before I made juice and jelly. If they're seedless, I'd eat them. :D

I am an American transplant, living and loving my home in Tasmania (the little green island off the southern tip of Australia's mainland). I married my man, and moved from...
