Serving guests microgreens...

...is a bit of a gamble. You never know how they are going to react. I harvested a tray of spicey mixed microgreens and made a salad of microgreens, sauteed young red ripper cowpeas, lime basil, burrata cheese and a homemade vinaigrette. One guest was blown away, said it was the best and most interesting salad they have ever had. Another guest just pushed the food around on the plate and asked, "where is the lettuce", LOL.

Red Rippers

These southern field peas pop up every spring in our garden. I got a pack years ago on Etsy. They are indestructible. The earliest green peas are so sweet you almost can't believe it. When the pods turn yellow, they are easier to shell, and they have a rich nutty flavor. Let them dry to brown and you get dried beans for the shelf. The skinny baby ones can be chopped up whole and stir fried. They will trellis but don't really need to. They are nitrogen fixers, so what goes in after them does well. They take time to shell so I recommend you get yerself a straw hat, some lemonade and maybe put on some old timey music.

Come on October !

Over 100 "feel-like" degrees already! I'd be OK with going to sleep tonight and waking up on October 1st. Jack-O-lantern garden pots do help a bit even if a candy bucket had to die.

Last year I still bought a pack of Snickers bars, just in case. We live in a Victorian-style house on a small, dead-end road, out on the edge of town. Our 300-ft driveway winds through the woods. Ironically, it looks a like a Halloween post card.
