:hugs Dont be so hard on yourself...haven't y'all been in a drought? Record heat too I hear from my family members in Texas. My poor mother says the same thing about her garden. She tries to be positive and describes it as "dormant". She is 80 years old and has been watering twice a day non...

I've had tomato jam too! It is very good on a hunk of toasted, buttered sourdough bread. :drool Thanks for the recipe for hot pepper jelly too!!! It is good at parties spread over cream cheese and served (self serve style) with gormet crackers. They call it cowboy candy sometimes.

Wow! That is interesting! In TX we had jalapeno jelly, yummy on a wheat cracker, with a smear of cream cheese!! I don't have the recipe though, hope someone can post one on this thread!!

Hi modern_pioneer! :frow I've always used straw or a strawberry pot to keep the strawberries off the dirt. But then I'm not a very seasoned gardener. Good Luck!

Cute pigs! Thank you for posting this thread, I just bought some "bluelake bush beans"...now I know what to expect!

:drool Oh that sounds so delicious!!

Hi Karenleaf, I love kohlrabi!! :love I just peel it and slice it thin, salt it and eat it raw! I could eat a million kohlrabis! I think being softball is big enough! I've only had baseball sized kohlrabis.

Can you sub yogurt for sour cream in that dish?

I don't think it kills them immediately. Give it time.

HiDelight, great photo!! I have a bird bath just like that, I need to put some decor in it like yours! I have two big hairy St. Bernards that muck the birdbaths up, so can I borrow your dog to clean out my birdbaths? :lau

HiDelight, you need a goat! (Or a sheep ;) )

I love anything in VODKA!!! :lau (Espcially citris!) I think we should have a thread called: "What from your garden did you mix in your VODKA?" :lau :lau I am going to try this this weekend! :drool Can't wait!

WOW!! :ep That radish is beautiful!

:drool I do miss the spicy foods from TX!!

:yuckyuck :lau

:frow I've heard from a very old farmer from TX that the hotter the climate, the hotter the pepper. Could be an old wives tale...:hu Thanks for explaining how to make soil sweet!
