Again, these pictures were taken months ago (maybe in November I can post the photos I just took of our baby winter garden!). That was a very good watermelon, I remember. In the foreground is a Silverline melon, next to a Collective Farm Woman Melon. Behind that is a single Ice Cream melon, with lots of the Golden Jenny melons. Mmmm....I miss the melons. I need to find a better way to plant them. Every year the weeds take over and I lose melons because I can't find them.
This was one of the pumpkin harvests. Lots of little lemon squash still, although these were too old to really eat. The Winter Luxury Pie pumpkins were heavenly. I still have one, although it's looking a bit old. The Black Futsu pumpkins were a bit disappointing. They were so tiny, and I guess they kind of tasted like hazelnuts, but not enough to be worth it. I think they didn't like Florida, either. The salmon pink warty pumpkins are the gorgeous Galeux Des Eysines ( I hope I spelled it right). They are one of my favorite pumpkins. I made the "Squash Cooked in a Light Broth" recipe with them from
this book for when we were studying the Mayans for home school.
