Look what Moawk sent me in Craftster’s One Tiny Thing (OTT 19) Swap! She crocheted a super cute kitty that looks like craftyalien’s knit swat team kitties. She sewed on the felt stripes and attached angel wings! I love it so much.

And since I took the picture outside, here’s a picture of my “garden” fully grown now. You can notice my overgrown basil that are flowering, the ripening tomatoes, and some green bell peppers. There’s also some yellowing jalapeno peppers in the front. Did you know they turn red if you put them in the fridge? I wonder why? Haven’t tasted the red ones yet.

Summer garden July 8, 2008

Some plants I’m growing this summer in my shared driveway. Not actually a garden.. they’re all in pots.

tomatoes
Tomato! I forgot what type but they’re small ones. Not rip yet.

tomatoes

peppers
Two pepper plants. The one on the left is sweet bell pepper and the one on the right is jalapeno. My mom managed to sneak in a taro plant in the middle (that big leaf) but it’s not going to grow. Taro is a root and would need tons more soil than that. Hopefully it won’t affect my peppers though it’s probably stealing nutrients. =/

jalepenos

peppers and basil in basin
The rest of the peppers and one tomato hidden back there. Basil on the right hand side. Smells so good. Too squished so they’re not growing well but the jalapenos are pretty big.

rosemary
Rosemary and some old scallions in the background.
