i was wondering where you had gotten yourself to lol. and here you’ve been hiding out in the garden.. that explains why my cucumbers were going missing lol. looks very yummy V!Morning :)
Not being the squash expert I have no idea what kind it is. I can tell you that it’s wonderful in my stir fry. :-} I shot this outside instead of the studio…seemed like the thing to do with this freshness.
I love fresh produce like this. My tomato crop should be fantastic this year, Zucchini is doing well and will have tons of peppers (from Bell, to Chili, to Banana). I’m currently trapping and relocating Squirrels that like to take a bite out of a green mater and then discard it …. Makes me mad …. Great shot Von.
Damn tree rats…cute but can be a thorn in a gardens side. I’ll trade you some tomatoes for chili peppers! I only have two chili plants and six tomato plants myself…hope they make it. lol
Sounds like you’ve been busy? I’ve been pretty busy too so haven’t been on much lately :(. Going to the fair ground tonight with missy, and then back tomorrow to watch and photograph the pig races and gator wrestling .. hee hee thats gonna be fun! yep I make pickles every year :)chinese cherries are ready so will be making jelly this weekend.. yumm!
Mmmmmm…...heaven in a basket! Do you like fried green tomatoes? When you can’t wait for them to ripen that is the way to go :) I looooove this time of year! Right…..I’m off to the local farmer’s market now ;) Wonderful shot Von :)
Don’t know if I like fried green tomatoes but my mother was an extra in the movie “fried green tomatoes”. You should be back from the market by now…got pics??
this summer it was corn,squash,cucumbers,tomatoes,apples and eggs! I didn’t even have to plant one seed or buy one hen!! I love the neighborhood gardens:) I love veggies!! apple pie and the eggs come in handy for baking. What a bountiful selection here von, great colors too!
I had some of the corn last night and it was out of this world. With all this garden fresh food who’d want to ever eat fast food??? Apple pie sure sounds good about right now. :-}}
How delish….......I need to go to the markets, my country kitchen could do with this kind of beautiful colour….......gorgeous image Von, can’t believe I feel like vegies for breakfast now!! ;)
What’s funny is with all this fresh food around the small cafe across the street still uses can veggies….I mean wtf? Big difference between can and fresh. I think I’ll let them know. Thanks Ms A!! Hugs!!
A veggie delight Von. It is one thing we down under are never short of …. oops preposition, (that is something up with which you may not put) Wondering what the material is you have used for your backdrop. It looks lighter than sacking?
The material we call burlap…it’s plentiful around these parts. Gots to watch to silly prepositions…ain’t no excuse for ending one’s sentence with with a word like at. lol
Oh so tasty Jen…it’s veggie heaven this time of year. Now to give fruit an equal shot…where’s the strawberries? Funny thing no one wants to lets go of their berries.

When my friend brought these beauties over I was thinking more of shooting them than eating…best of both worlds huh. lol
Bunny Clarke
What a beautiful array of veggies. Now I’m drooling. Great capture.

Last night I cooked a roast beef that would have been killer with those veggies!!
I love farm fresh – I’m lucky enough to have a few local farms who sell direct to the public. The taste and quality is distinctive!

Big difference between can and fresh. I think I’ll let them know.
