Look!! Its a baby nectarine. The only down side is that the wind from the storm some nights ago knocked off all of the other flowers and baby fruits and we are now left with this little guy. I pray it will last throughout the next couple months. We still have a few hail storms to make it though before Mr. Fruit will be ready. Stephanie and I BOTH had put our names on it.
We have also been harvesting lettuce like is going out of style. I seriously don’t remember having this much last year.
Oh, that’s right, I only planted half the seeds. Plus, last year it bolted pretty fast. I was happy to harvest extra a few days ago. Stephanie was having a luncheon at work and her job was to provide the lettuce for the salads. Needless to say I was able to find a couple leaves to give away. This lettuce is spectacular. Full of flavor and no pesticide.
I can’t wait until we get some tomatoes to harvest. Hopefully by then the lettuce will still be around and then I can have a salad with homegrown onions and ‘maters.

Doesn’t it stink that when you want to pair something together you don’t have the other one anymore?
That is the best tasting lettuce I have had. Yummmmmmy
