Oooh Okra and canteloupe! Nice! How do you cook your okra?
ReplyDeleteNice looking cantaloupe you have there...I hope you fried some of that okra up!
ReplyDeleteLove your okras! How many plants do you have? I have about 15-20 and get only a handful each week! Not very productive.
ReplyDeleteLove the color of the classroom, very energizing!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cantaloupe you grew! I have some in the garden, but they aren't ripe yet. I keep looking, and waiting, and watching.....

Those okra looks good, got to try to grow some next year.
ReplyDeleteDid you freeze that bag of okra for later use, maybe some more gumbo?
ReplyDeletekitsapFG... please forgive me. I accidentally deleted your comment. I was trying to publish it from my phone and my FAT FINGERS hit the delete button. AGHH!!! Those buttons are too close together. So here is your comment...kitsapFG has left a new comment on your post "Harvest Monday 08/16/10":
ReplyDeleteFun to see the kids helping with the painting project - it is turning out beautiful too. Enjoy seeing okra and melons - two things I am not likely to grow in my garden because our climate is really unsuited to successfully growing either item.
I've just got to try growing melons again next year. I often try but the measly harvests I usually get make me decide not to for another five years. Who knows, maybe next year I'll have heat too.
ReplyDeleteI wish it was warm enough here in New England to grow okra well. I'm sure it will be mighty good in the gumbo.
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of okra. I really have to start watching all you garden/cook people use okra as I only know a couple recipes but I love the way it looks when its growing.
