DH grew squash, cucumbers, tomatoes and peppers. We had oodles of squash and cucumbers, and we're still getting peppers - four varieties, yum! My favorite thing, though was the little bit of tomato sauce I cooked down from the disappointing crop of tomatoes. It's zesty and delicious, without the ketchup-y sweetness of commercial sauce.

Oh, and I have herbs. Basil is probably my favorite of this year … unless it's the chocolate mint sugar. (Pack leaves of chocolate mint in a container of sugar. Shake occasionally to keep the sugar from clumping. The sugar draws the flavor from the mint leaves. Good in hot tea or sprinkled as a garnish.)
Someday, I hope to get paid to kill people. For now, I just do it for fun.
