Farmer Fail

While it is true that half of my genes come from farming families I seem to have missed out on those genes!  I have finally admitted that I am just not meant to be a farmer...or at least not have a garden!  (I'm not ruling out my ability to care for animals!)

This summer I tried growing tomatoes, green beans, carrots and peppers.  

Sadly, I got one cucumber, 3 beans and a bunch of very small carrots.  

We're a big fan of baby carrots in this house so it wasn't a total loss!  

I threw these into some chicken soup and they were delicious! 

I'm super excited that cooler temperatures have arrived...in this house that means - SOUP!!! I will be sure to share some of our favorite soups soon!
