All Grown Up

My baby lettuce seeds are all grown up now. Tonight, I will use some of the fresh leaves in a salad for part of my dinner. Nothing taste better than food you planted yourself. I also saw a couple of fall cherry tomatoes growing. Aside from the tomatoes and the lettuce, everything is getting yanked this week. I considered allowing the okra a little more time, but its final pardon was denied and it is time for it to walk the "green" mile. I'm a little sad to say goodbye to this year's crops (I use the word crops in its most pitiful sense). But, now we can all lay dormant for the winter and begin to dream about next year's improvements.
