Deep Purple


After several years, our grape vines are finally getting big enough to bear a decent amount of fruit.

A few years back, we planted a seedless table grape and three Concorde grape vines.  After a couple of years, it turned out that the vines had been mislabeled -- the seedless table grape wasn't seedless, and two of the three Concordes weren't.

So, the grapes are still very much a work in progress, but this year we finally got enough Concordes to actually do something with.

Here's what we picked...




...and a few hours later here's what they became.


Yum!

Addicted to Spuds


We dug the rest of our potatoes today.  Here's what we ended up with.



There are 65 pounds in the box.  Added to what we've already dug for dinner, we probably got 80-90 pounds this year.
