I think, this year at least, I'm going to be a farmer's market kind of a girl too!<br /><br />Kel, perhaps you will be someone who can pass along some of your bounty ;)Jenhttp://ourgoodfoodlife.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4377720798850978122.post-53280701817883723512010-07-29T23:24:15.330-04:002010-07-29T23:24:15.330-04:00Hang in there and just remember your notes - we ar...Hang in there and just remember your notes - we are on our 4th year gardening in a large format (I have always had a garden as a kid and never remembered it being such hard work.) It is much easier at home we currently have to drive an hour to get there. It will get better as the years go.Kel Klumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11365705113330493006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4377720798850978122.post-60392936723442296112010-07-29T19:38:42.777-04:002010-07-29T19:38:42.777-04:00So sorry to hear your garden has suffered this fat...So sorry to hear your garden has suffered this fate. I know you were really looking forward to a homegrown bounty. Your tips for 2011 sound most sensible. I went hog wild the summer after I bought my house, turning nearly a third of my backyard into a garden (as an incentive to go with them, my mortgage company gave me a $100 gift certificate to Burpee's Seeds, with which I bought way too many plants for a newbie to keep up with). That experience pretty much did me in, as far as gardening goes, so now I'm more of a shop at the farmers market kind of girl.<br /><br />Thanks again for joining in this month's Culinary Smackdown. Details of the one for next month have been announced here:<br /><br />http://alittlebitofchristo.blogspot.com/2010/07/who-ever-doesnt-like-to-win-says-its.html<br /><br />We'd love to have you join us again.<br /><br />Take care,<br />eggySharon Ruddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00598263732896925616noreply@blogger.com
