Our asparagus is winding down. Last year I had enough to can up several pints but this year sadly, not enough but we still have a big bag in the refrigerator for several more meals.
This is a typical meal...chicken grilled, steamed asparagus and rice with white sauce. With our fresh lettuce we are having now, salads make a preview. I love making a fresh taco salad. I grill chicken breasts and slice and add to our fresh lettuce, ranch beans, sweet onion sliced very thin, grated cheese, catalina dressing and frito corn chips. yum!!!
This is our small lettuce patch with 2 types of leaf lettuce and spinach. We have gotten so much off this small patch that we have been giving gallon bags of it to friends.


This shot of our garden doesn't do it justice. It has grown so much but sadly a little too much rain. Bean plants do not like this much rain we have been having. The tomatoes and green peas have fruit now and peppers are blooming.
