Thomas – The blue corn has been a lot of fun, but I do miss my sweet corn!!!
RandomGardener – There have been a few big butternuts and several little guys still waiting to come off the vine! I’m just happy to finally have some winter squash to stash away!
Dave – We just might try to make blue corn chips this year. I’m sure it will be an adventure, but it should be fun, too 🙂
Shaheen – I am happy you are happy…if you were here, I’d share with you. Promise.
M-K girl – Thank you! I am very excited about all the winter squash this year…though our summer squash harvest has been very minimal. Not sure what happened, but it’s been quite disappointing.
I enjoy looking the variety of squash you harvested. Wow blue corn! So many treasures from your garden.
Butternut squash, bluecorn…go on rub it in – no really I am happy and very envious.
A lot of cherry tomatoes there. And finally the corn turns blue. Looks nice. Time for some blue corn tortilla chips and salsa.
Butternut squash looks so big! You have had a variety of harvests this week! Looks wonderful!
Hurray for blue corn! You’re tempting me to try that variety next year. That butternut looks HUGE!
