Fruits (or more accurately, Vegetables) of the Garden

Notwithstanding my lack of experience in vegetable gardening, the garden has produced food for our table.  First, we had lettuce (although it has not been as tasty as I thought it would be).  Then, yesterday, Becky found full grown green beans hiding within the tangle of leaves.  We each had one or two for dinner, and we look forward to continuing to eat them for the remainder of the season.  We also now have over a dozen tomatoes growing - even on the small plants that have not grown in height or branched out much, and we are awaiting their maturity.  Finally, the first cucumbers have started to grow and we anticipate a full crop and a good pickling season (assuming I learn how to pickle).

Now, it is off to one of my other gardens - the law firm - to see what is growing there.
