A gift basket for me!

Look what we received as a gift today. Our friend Janis gave these to us today in the hopes Mommy is gonna make some Pomegranate jam. Daddy said I better be careful because these things stain and I don't want to look like a red Eskie. But I wonder if I ate too much of this fruit, would I turn into a red Pom Pom (Pomeranian)?

Week thirty three in the garden

The fall weather left us yesterday. We had temperatures in the high eighties all weekend. The temps are going up to the nineties all week. I guess I'll be ok with the hot weather since our garden is still blooming. We haven't seen any strawberries for a long time but were glad to see the first one today.

We have lemon balm in abundance.
Mommy and Daddy have been enjoying lettuce in their salads with dinner every night.
Sierra heard something near the mint plant. (I sent her to supervise today since I was napping with Mommy).
It's a good thing Mommy wasn't out in the garden today because look at what Daddy found. A worm! Mommy thinks they are gross.
There is a cabbage sprouting. We love fall/winter gardening too.
Mommy thinks the shape of this butternut squash is just pawfect.
And look what we discovered today. One of our neighbors has a pomegranate tree. We hope we get to share in their harvest.

Thankful Thursday

'Tis the season for generosity. Today I am thankful for friends who had gardens during the summer. Daddy brought home a pomegranate and several lemons. We hope that Daddy's friend will bring more pomegranates. They are so tasty. Mommy says they are good for you too. What is your favorite fruit?
