Fallen Souffle

I arrived back from a weekend away to find my garden had exploded! My tomato plants are falling over my other plants and have dozens and dozens of little green tomatoes. I just know they are all going to turn red while I am on vacation…grrrr. Well at least I can enjoy the eggplants before I go. I harvested 2 eggplants yesterday and roasted them with some zucchini and yellow squash last night to go with dinner. YUM! I am loving the smaller japanese eggplants as they don’t get quite as mushy when you cook them. I have about 3 more that will probably be ready to be picked tonight, so it’s time to start experimenting with some eggplant recipes. I also have a small jalapeno which surprised me because the little tag says it takes 72 days to grow to maturity and I bought it like 3 weeks ago…oh, well I will take it! I also have a green pepper which I have already decided will result in stuffed peppers when I get a pair of them. Why has it taken me this long to grow a garden, I am loving it!
