Wiped Out!

I went to the garden yesterday to pick tomatoes. Here's what I found!



These blister bugs have wiped them out and are working on the peppers now.



There were several worms on them too.



We picked all the green and ripe tomatoes, 3 squash, and the okra is gone also. It's been an enjoyable summer of picking & eating fresh vegetables. Only 5 or 6 more months and we can start all over again!

Now the sad part of having to go to the grocery store to buy flavorless, nutriionless veggies. The growing season is oh too short.

Oh! That's terrible. We still have some very small tomatoes ripening on our plants. This is when I miss Lubbock and the Panhandle...picking bushels of tomatoes on the farms up there and then going home and making jars and jars of hot sauce!
