There is scarcely anything in the world that some man cannot make a little worse, and sell a little more cheaply. The person who buys on price alone is this man's lawful prey. - John Ruskin -

Not strictly garden, but food anyway. We got a couple of cases of mangoes and a case of peaches from the coop today. They’re in season, and reasonably cheap, so we’re dehydrating a bunch of the mango, and planning on freezing most of the peaches. It’ll be nice to grab a bag of peaches in the middle of winter for a cobbler or pie… if they last that long.

At the farmer’s market today too, lots of asian vegetables there this time. We got some thai eggplant and made green curry for dinner, really good. The restaurant always has those eggplant in their green curry, first time we tried them at home. Very good, easy to cook.

The garden is doing great too - the first sweet peppers are getting bigger, and we’re getting a small but steady supply of cherry tomatoes. The second round of peas is coming up nicely, and the beans are producing well - green beans in the curry tonight too.
