Mom always knows best. My goal this summer was to have a small garden on my deck. With this goal in mind it was Mom to the rescue. She came to spend a week with my Uncle Steven and Aunt Linda. On her way back she picked up some seed packets, planters and soil. After giving me some much needed guidance I was on my way. I started the seeds inside the house in little starter dirt things (yes "things" is the technical name) on my kitchen table. Once the little plants had started I transplanted them in the planters on my deck. The other night while talking to my mom I looked out to my deck and to my surprise there they were. My little tomatoes, just five little tomatoes trying with all their might to survive my attempt at gardening.
Then if that were not enough over 12 cute little cucumbers have begun to grow. That will be at least 4 jars of pickles..... yum, yum!!!
This last little tea pot is my strawberry plants. There are no fruits yet but it is on it's way.
Just wanted to share my exciting news.

Hey Debbie, it sounds as though things are going well in your neck of the woods. Congrats on the garden. It's exciting to see the fruits of your labor growing.
Love ya,
Brenda
Those tiny little cucumbers are the cutest little things I have EVER seen! I love tiny things that aren't supposed to be tiny but they are, like tiny chairs or tiny cookie magnets. Did that make sense? Anyway, way to go on the mini garden!
Cute Deb! I am so proud...
I'm glad you have a green thumb but you know the old phrase "don't count your pickles before they're bottled". Hopefully they grow a little bigger before winter. :)
