I want so badly to plant a garden! But since we travel each summer, I had to compromise. We have a nice deck, and I planted a tomato plant, some broccoli, beans, and zucchini, as well as some fresh herbs. They have started producing! So far I've had a small serving of broccoli (its going to seed already though...so i doubt we'll get anymore :( )
My beans have grown up and around the balcony's bars.
Nia is enjoying some fresh beans. Enjoying playing with them at least. I'm just glad she tasted them.
So, we'll see how much I get out of it, but it has been fun. And Nia did have to work for it too. (it was so tempting not to pick everything) She does go out there and cradle the tomatoes in her hands, but she is pretty gentle. I told her they were "momma and Nia's baby tomatoes"
We have been trying to stay busy since Mike has had to travel quite a bit this summer.

That's great that your little garden is doing well. We have been enjoying lettuce, we have a ton, but it is already starting to go bitter. Guess I will feed it to Mom's chickens. Our peas should be ready soon. Yum!
Haha, I can just see her doing that, too funny. Thanks for your help with the recipe, I am making it tonight!
Sorry you're left alone a lot. That has to be hard! You are so ambitious. I don't even have enough energy to think about gardening right now. It must be so rewarding though. I keep forgetting to water my calla lily (: I love how she cradles the tomatoes (: Nathan is all into babies and being gentle. Everything is his baby! I love it.
