| Squashes - October 06 |
|
| All home-grown! |
We grew all these chaps above from seed this year, which was good fun. We've got a few pumpkins as well that are too big
for the windowsill. I love them there, they look so lovely and autumnal!

| Pumpkin Growing |
|
We had some success with squashes and pumpkins this year, despite the fact we really neglected them! This one was destined
to be a jack-o-lantern and then pumpkin butter. Yum!

| Juicy and Prolific Raspberries |
|
I don't know what we did right here...but we sure did something! We couldn't keep up with all the raspberries we got this
year. In fact, I've still got some in my freezer!
| Drying Onions |
|
We had a decent crop of onions as well, and those that didn't get used straight out of the ground I took home and dried out
to store. There's some garlic in there as well, and there is NOTHING like fresh garlic, let me tell you!

|
| Invincible Strawberries |
|
This clump of strawberries must be the strongest strain on the planet. As they were in the path, we tried to kill them the
year before with chemicals and a blowtorch...but these survived! We didn't eat them for fear of what we put on them, but
by next year, we'll probably give in, as they put out a lot of lovely fruit!
