Day 220 - Pea-Ka-Boo

YES! Our peas are ready! Well, not all of them but enough to munch on. We plant peas every year but somehow none of them ever end up in the house. Usually they're ready when we start school so they become our after school snack. The beautiful weather we've had this summer have brought them early. We've had a few small pickings and there's still more.
Peg gave me the idea of using them for my photo today. We kept one aside, I took out the macro and snapped a few shots. I like this one because it shows the smoothness of the peas. Once the 'shooting' was done we ate the subject. Now, that's what I call edible photography!

Day 177 - Peas-a-plenty


One third of our garden is reserved for peas. We tend to eat them raw right off the vine. On occasion enough of them make it inside for Farmer's Dish. The first sowing has come up enough for the mesh netting to be installed today. We found this last year at our favourite garden store. It is sooooo much easier than tying strings for the vines to cling to.
