The veg garden is PLANTED. And I'm EXHAUSTED. [View all]

16 tomato (Early Girl, San Marzano, Marinara, some sort of sweet cherry tomato), 16 pepper (Gypsy, Sweet Italian, Big Red and Habanero) along with zucchini and yellow squash. There's room for more if I find something interesting and for any volunteer tomato plants that pop up.

This is a much smaller garden than I usually plant. I am already looking forward to some delish 'from garden to table' Mediterranean style meals and stocking up the freezer with home made stewed tomatoes.

As soon as I find the energy, I'm going to make a nice big G&T, sit in the shade and relax.
