Bumper Crop

Day 210/365
This is the story of a garden, a rather large garden planted lovingly ever year. The garden is planted with a variety of seeds, with hopeful, excited murmurs of the kinds of sweet goodness the cool earth holds for a summer harvest. Then this garden, which holds up its end of the bargain, gets neglected by varying degrees each year. This year, I have to admit, is pretty bad. The weather has been cool, rainy and just plain crummy and this garden has gone unnoticed for quite some time. Despite all of this, the garden still produces a mound of hot peppers for us to enjoy. Thankfully, there are also tomatoes, beans and zucchini. I see some spicy dinners in our future.
