Garden Bounty

This summer was so hot and dry that even with regular watering, most of our garden was pretty pathetic.  Of the 20+ tomato plants we planted, maybe six of them produced.  It was a disappointing year, so we neglected the garden from about mid-July on. 

 

Last weekend, I finally went out to find a harvest that didn't disappoint.  I picked an entire bowl of miscellaneous cherry tomatoes (Indigo Rose and Jelly Bean were probably the most prolific, although neither were the most flavorful).  I also got a whole bowl of one of the roma-looking tomatoes.  It may be Viva Italia.  Then there were a variety of small-ish purples and yellows.  I can't be sure which variety these were.  Everything gets so tangled, whatever markers are left are hard to pair with actual fruits.

 

There were also a few tomatillos, but hardly enough to even make a batch of salsa with.  The red onions were kind of fun this year, but they were pretty small.  A few peppers have come in as well.
