More gardening

I’ve got a backyard full of tomatoes, oranges, limes and now, finally, some pumpkins!

John discovered them last night when he was showing off all of our gardening feats (and by our I mean Dan and I). So far I’ve seen five tiny pumpkins. I’m hoping the winter squash I planted will start making fruit pretty soon as well. We’ll see.

With all the success I’ve had with growing fruit in my oppressively hot and humid backyard, I’m wondering if I’d be able to successfully grow my own little tea plant. Has anyone else tried this?

There is a small tea garden at Epcot, with a few tea plants growing here and there. (It’s more herbs than tea, actually.) I’m guessing if they can grow tea in Florida, so can I. Who knows how much time someone spends taking care of those things, though.

Anyone know where to buy some tea seeds or a small, started plant?

Tomatoes!

I’ve been gardening in the backyard this year and we’ve finally gotten some little red tomatoes. Can’t wait for the rest to ripen!

Being happy: New Tea!

First off, happy Thanksgiving to all! I’m having a great time with my family! We’re watching the parade, drinking egg nog!

My parents went out for last minute groceries and brought back some Eggnogg’n tea for me! Woohoo!

Being happy: Family

The best part of my day has definitely got to be seeing my dad and Debbie for the first time in a few months. It’s been hard since everyone moved away, they are my strongest support system. I’m so excited to be able to spend Thanksgiving with them and to be able to visit my sister, Brandi. Woohoo!
