been spending a bit of time each morning in the veggie patch (aka the side garden)…

the tomatoes have been doing well and there are now pea pods beginning to fill out, flowers on the beans, a few new cucumbers starting and, just maybe a squash…

there have been many squash flowers, but they have mostly been male… I have been trying to pollinate the female flowers in hopes of getting at least one squash…

one batch of cucumbers haven’t put out even the start of a cucumber, so I have been brushing them with a drafting brush that was my beloved’s in the hope that some might get pollinated and produce fruit…

think I will try to plant another few beans and see if they have enough time to produce;-)…
