They are hardneck and I usually do plant in Oct. and once I planted in November and I had to plant in the box I am using this time because the garden was froze. We have pretty good weather right now, so the weather is no problem. I went ahead and planted them. I was not going to plant any but DD...

I went to buy garlic to plant and it was all bought up but a few left that are really dried. They are purple garlic, kind of brown and hard. Are they too old to plant?

I grow them and this year DD dug some flowers up in my yard and she has a hollyhock that bloomed and even took a picture of it. All the years she lived here, she never looked at the hollyhocks or liked them, but she has changed her mind. LOL

I have planted a lot of heirloom, so it most likely is.

I went back 2 years and I did not see beefsteak, but I might have about 3 years ago.

I made hamburger vegetable soup and I used frozen tomatoes from the garden and dehydrated onions from the garden. I was going to put in zucchini, but I forgot and I had that the next day as just a side dish. I have found that if I put cut up zucchini in the dish when baking chicken that DS and...

Looks great! DS would rather have banana bread, but I made zucchini bread trying to use up zucchini.

Drank a cup of coffee kind of fast this morning lol, so went out with it sprinkling to pick green things for the rabbit's breakfast and I bent over picking Swiss chard and saw something red and found a red volunteer tomato. I did not see this one before. I have been watching several small green...

Mine has some small green tomatoes. I am not sure they will make it to ripen. It would be an early tomato because that is usually all I grow. I can't tell what it is. The plant is not tall.

Drinking coffee and almost noon. LOL Talking in text with DD who has all kinds of plans for a garden next year. She is asking about manure and how to plant garlic. She is busy. I found a tomato plant that came up from last year's seed and it has flowers on it. I am not sure if there is enough...

I have been slowly drinking coffee and sewing making another rag quilt. I am trying to finish it today and start on another one. I have been sewing and helping DD with kids, going to the park, going shopping and then I may just now have recovered from a trip to Joann's with DD and kids. She...

DS would be so happy if I made this for him. LOL

I really don't know if I could hand air quality 493. I hope it is better there today for you there.

Drinking coffee and deciding if the smoke outside has been stressing me and making my heart skip beats. I think my office has a stronger smell of smoke than the rest of the house. I do not live in Washington, so I can't complain, but this is sure getting old. We should get some rain today, but...

I am still drinking coffee. I went outside and picked beans before it got hot. I have a big bowl snapped from last night that I have to blanch this morning and freeze and I brought in 2 big bowls this morning that I have to start snapping. I have a bowl of tomatoes I have to start working on...

Still drinking coffee. I went out earlier and took care of the rabbit and looked to see how much rain. I heard it rain for like a minute and then it stopped and then like 5 minutes later it rained for a minute and I feel asleep, so I am not sure how much it rained later. We are supposed to...

Pictures other people took.

I had coffee this morning and I have been sewing and waiting for rain, but it just is not getting here.. Yesterday was crazy. Several fires around here and 1 across the river and is less than 2 miles from me. Planes all over the place and helicopters dropping water and flame retardant. They...

Drinking coffee and paying bills online. I got beans blanched last night and I have to go pick some. I added more to my compost bins. It is going to be in the 70s and 80s next week with some rain maybe tomorrow and high of about 78.

I agree about the dogs and killing cats. We usually had a dog and several cats when I was growing up and the dogs had to be taught not to hurt the cats. I love dogs, but so expensive now.
