I meant to post last Thursday but I had a migraine and sinus infection from HELL. I love living in Florida but I'm thinking
some place where my allergies won't be triggered would be best.
I've been working in my garden trying to get it ready for winter. I took these pictures this morning.
Here I planted some lettuce and radish together. I have 4 of these bins going. YAY lots of salads!
We have kale too which is one of my favorites.
I actually have a lot in my yard, tomatoes, key limes, mulberries, grapes, loquats, oranges, pineapple guava, regular guava and more.
I'm going to buy some bananas for this area soon. We have some but it gets cold here so we don't get the fruit.
Here are is a picture of our peas coming up and another of one of my loquat trees. The other is on the other side of my yard near my grapes and mulberry tree.
We just planted some broccoli, cabbage, and beets yesterday.
Let's see, what else. Oh yes! We got a new member of the family. His name is Black Jack. We have a lot of feral cats that live in our neighbor hood. We've tried to catch the mama cat to get her fixed but we haven't been able to yet. Well this little guy was in our garage!
He bit me but he was just scared. Now he is so lovey! Purr purr purr. He even enjoyed his bath and loves to play.
We recently bought a ukulele on a whim and my 10 year old who loves the violin and music in general has really
taken to it. This week I heard her play “What I Got” by Sublime (she changed the words when she sang), “Happy Birthday” to her sister who turned 8, and Stairway to Heaven.
Our newly 8 year old got a new beta fish which she has name “Gills”. We spent her birthday at the beach fishing, which is a little ironic when that is what she wanted for a pet but… who am I to judge? We swam and got dinner. It was a good day.
Anything interesting happen in your life this week? I'd love to hear.
We are reaching the end of our growing season and it has the husband sad. Our peppers we planted in May didn’t develop enough and now we won’t be getting his spicy peppers. Wish we could plant this late in the year and still get harvestable crops. Amber Edwards recently posted..Getting a fresher home with Fresh Step® Lightweight
Do you plant squash or cucumbers? I have an infestation of squash beetles. I have been using a soap mixture as pesticide & it’s worked with other pests but it seems the squash beetles just laugh at it. I’m about to break out the Sevin Dust!
We never got around to planting our 2nd batch of lettuce this year and now it is too late! Grrrr! Scott recently posted..Are You Ready to Cut the Cord?
We’ve already had our first frost so we cannot grow anything else easily at this point. Can’t wait for spring! Ellen Christian recently posted..Protecting Your Identity While Shopping
I need to get out and work on my beds. We got a cold snap and now they’re just looking pretty sad. Hopefully next year the summer/fall will be an easier one and I’ll keep them going longer. Yours are looking fab! And aws to the herd babe. anna (herding cats & burning soup) recently posted..Deeper Than Need (Secrets & Shadows #1) by Shiloh Walker

Sorry. Squash bug not beetle.
We do and yes we get hit with bugs. I’ll have to ask the hubs what he uses. I know it is all natural.
I think it is Borax. I know we’ve used it in the garden. I just help plant and water. J takes care of the rest.
We lie in TN and my daughter lives in GA and the allergies are just as bad here. I totally feel your pain on the migraine and allergy levels.

You’ve been busy! I’d love to come eat some of that salad you’ve got growing!
