This summer I have a garden (besides the volunteer squash plants)! I haven't mentioned it on my blog yet, I don't really know why! The garden isn't in our yard, but I feel blessed to be able to have a gardening spot made available to us that isn't too far away!
What are we growing?
Tomatoes! lots of them! We have 15 regular tomato plants and 2 cherry tomatoes.
Green beans - again, lots of them! I'll be busy canning later this summer!
Red bell peppers (4)
"Jalapa" peppers (4) - these are hot peppers but not jalapenos, so I don't know what to expect
Lettuce
Radishes
Sugar Peas
It takes planning to get our garden watered and weeded since we have to go to it, rather than just walk out the door. But really, we don't have a spot in our yard that is ideal for growing the quantity of vegetables that we desire. So this is working out really well!

I thought about doing tomatoes, but didn't. Maybe I'll find a community garden next year and try it. :) However, I did hear I should be able to purchase a bushel of tomatoes at the farmer's market for a good price in a few weeks. I really do want to can some this year. :)
Beautiful produce, Tammy! We're so far behind you: we're just now eating lettuce, not even peas yet! But now you make me antsy for my tomatoes to catch up. :)
