Garden of Eden

Well, the garden begins to blossom. All of the fruits are really starting to come alive. I didn't take any pictures of all the overgrowth and weeds that have taken over also. The soil in our backyard is really rich I think. So it makes for GREAT fruit, but it also makes for weeds galore and lawnmower-smashed fruit since it there is more fruit than we can pick.

The pride and joy if the garden. The delicious black (but not blackberry) berries are coming. They are so good!!

What! What!

Grapes of wrath. They are still too bitter. But I love backyard grapes. They have such a unique taste.

Apples up, applesauce beneath.

Apricots.

Last year our apricot tree gave us about five apricots. This year, we had five too many. There were so many on the tree that two of the big branches snapped right off. I spent the whole morning cutting them all up and cleaning up the mess. We are glad we have a lot this year, though. (Last year we just ate the ones off the trees at Rock Canyon Park--those require no cutting, sawing, and ripping apart branches).
