Garden Fresh Vegetables

Happy Tuesday Everyone! yesterday was a holiday here and my daughter was off from work so we had a nice long weekend. But, today life is back to our regular routine and it feels like Monday, The sun is shining and it's a bit warm which is warmer than usual for this point in October. At least I don't have the electric meter spinning with either the a//c or the heat. Looks like the temps will drop again in the next few days and it will feel more like October. Over the weekend my daughter spent some time with her friends and when she came home she was grinning from ear to ear. She had a nice amount of garden fresh vegetables that her friends had given her....zucchini, eggplant, cherry tomatoes and green beans. Needless to say we'll be set for the week and I'm so excited to have some beautiful garden veggies to enjoy. The older I've gotten the more I like vegetables and never in my wildest dreams would I have ever said that. Do you like vegetables? What's your favorite?

that was a nice windfall. I've always enjoyed fresh vegetables. My favorite all time fresh vegetable just happens to be in season right now, it is squash. We picked up a few on the weekend and it was delicious.

I have always loved vegetables …my favourite is sprouts ….not usually a popular choice but I love them. I have cauliflower growing at home at the moment, and the last of the courgettes for this year.

I’m not fond of too many vegetables and not very often but I do like broccoli and corn and sometimes zucchini if it’s done right

Garden veggies hit different when they are fresh, lucky you. I like vegetables more now too, and green beans are my favorite. Enjoy the long weekend leftovers and that nice weather while it lasts.

Nice to enjoy some nice warm weather We are down in the 40s at night now. Brr! But so much better than 110. I am not a fan of vegetables. Ate a lot of them in my youth and I think I've just had enough. I do love spinach and turnip greens. I like broccoli. I'm glad avocados are not vegetables. I'm usually disappointed by Brussel sprouts. I like veggies cooked in things not eaten by themselves.

I am so bad. Lifelong veggies are yucky to be avoided lol.
