Glimpse of Flakes

This morning I saw the first snow flakes of this year. This is my first glimpse of a snow. Its just a little ones and it only lasted for not more than 5 minutes. But at least I was able to see it. I am happy that I will finally see a snow and experience things for the first time.

The first Frost!

a leave on the frost

We had the first frost in our area. Being my first time seeing greens with white on top makes me smile. It is a nice view for me and my husband just laughed. I just did not know by then what will happen with my vegetabe garden :(:( My garden is dying now and I am so sad. They still giving flowers and because of the frost they are dying and I can't do anything to help them. So sad but I have to live with it. Maybe next year we are going to start the garden earlier. But still I love the image of the first frost.

I can tell that the climate is changing. Its getting colder and as much us I like to see a snow I am having a second toughts whether I love the cold or not. See I came from a country where its hot. Even 50 degrees is cold enough for me. Hmmm but I am still excited for the winter to come and I know I will be having a lots of fun...

Its retarded!!!

I can't believe we grow a retarded carrot. It's retarded but cute and funny looking (LOL). My husband took some carrots out of the garden and guess what he saw... a funny looking carrot:

see? it's like a crossed legs of a human...

We both laughing at this one. I know I can't preserved it like this so decided to take a picture. I will keep this picture as long as I can so it will remind me that once upon a time we grew a retarded carrot.

We Love Crap!

This page will be more about what we do in our daily lives, with my husband's love for "crap" (will not just him actually). We love Trift's Store, Goodwill, Amvets, A+ and man oh man Garage and States Sale. We usually find something that interest us. One time he found fishing reels in Amvets and came home with a box of fishing reels. We posted it in ebay and BOOM! 4 out of 7 was sold and we almost triple our money. So I can't blame him.

Except for our love of "crap", we both love gardening and this year (being my first year) is a blast! We had a big garden that we ended up buying another freezer for our harvest but still there are so many even if we've been giving stuff to our neighbors almost everyday that maybe they might get sick of cucumbers, squash or tomatoes. But hey! it's better than buying right? We planted different stuff and more than one variant of each.

this is just one type of pepper that we grow (hungarian)

Every other day I will go outside the yard and pick fresh vegetables. We also have an everbearing strawberries which give's me fresh straberries. And nothing can beat a freshly picked vegetables or fruits.
