Peppers, Tomatoes and Corn, Oh My!

Tuesday was a planting day.  We each took a day off from work and spent the day in the garden.  Peppers are planted!  Green, red, yellow, cayenne, jalapeno, and banana.  The last 8 tomato plants (cherry) went into the ground.  Two rows of peanuts.  The first 6 rows of corn.  Russet, red and purple potatoes.  Two rows of sunflowers (just because they’re pretty).  It was a very productive day.

This was my best friend for the day:

So thankful my lovely daughter thought enough of me on vacation to buy me this lovely water bottle!

If anyone’s wondering, this was my view during pepper planting:

Ah, the glamorous life of garden planting 😉

The kale is looking beautiful.

There is still so much left to do, but we’re getting there!  Watermelon, more corn, more potatoes, cantaloupe, squash, green beans, etc. still to be planted.  I’m so excited to see the garden growing and taking shape.  I’m looking forward to delivering those baskets of fresh produce.  I’m ready for early Saturday mornings at the Farmer’s Market. I’m VERY excited to see this:
