It is really good! Finally growing my own, it's taken them so long to come to fruit!

Sounds like a busy but wonderful time, Susan! Congrats on all of the great veggies this season! and good luck on the fall crop!

finally!! an eggplant!! this little baby just started peaking out over the weekend.

I can imagine! If you're able to grow enough produce, it probably is really profitable. I live in a small town in the south, and there are a lot of locals that sell produce at farmer's market. Some have even made deals with the local grocery stores to supply their produce. There are little...

Probably not sell any. Just share with family and friends this go around. Maybe if we have a good turn out we'll try for bigger & better next year!

I'm hoping to have enough for jack o lanterns and pumpkin pie! Plus I love roasting pumpkin seeds. I'll have to wait and see how many turn out. Looks like a good bunch though.

So ready for fall!!

This is a great idea! Would be something fun to do with a pre-school or elementary grade class.

Hey Christine, I think its polenta.... here's a wiki on it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polenta

School starts next week here. Going on a 4 day trip (starting tonight!) to the lake to relax before it gets hectic!

Someone said the problem might be pollination? That I need more than one plant so bees could cross pollinate from the flowers. I'll give it a little longer and see what happens!

you can see the difference from the earlier photo--this plant has grown A LOT. It's gotten really tall (growing above the window!) and there have been plenty of flowers, but so far none have turned into eggplants! Not sure what's going wrong now.

the pumpkins are getting big, fast! but we've been getting a lot of rain the past two weeks, and I think that's been the biggest help!

After trying the breakfast casserole, I'm really excited about overnight meals. I don't know why I never thought of it. I always thought slow cooker= start meal in the morning and dinner will be ready after work. It's so great to put it on when you're going to bed and wake up to warm breakfast...

I made this recipe over the weekend, not realizing that it's servings for 12 people! Definitely something to keep in mind because 30 oz of hashbrowns didn't look like much until it started cooking! I also substituted the pork sausage for Morning Star vegetarian soy-based product that's supposed...

I love breakfast foods so much! This would be a great recipe to prepare at night and let cook while you sleep... wake up and breakfast is already ready for you! thanks for sharing

Does anyone grow their own pumpkins? I'm trying for the first time this year. Have a little patch over at my aunt's farm, about 7 or 8 rows. I may have planted them a little late... some are growing a lot better than the others though. Just wondering if anyone has suggestions on fertilizers or...

Thanks for the suggestion Geri!

do you have a fryer? I was thinking about frying it, but I don't have a fryer and so all the instructions I saw were heating oil in a pan and coating the okra in breadcrumbs... seemed like a good risk of getting burnt with popping oil.

reminded me of this commercial, it's not what you're expecting, which I think makes it even more effective with its message!
