Today it rained throughout. But before it did, I got hold of my first green peppers from my veggie patch and fried them in butter together with some mushrooms (called “shitake” here in Japan) after sprinkling some sea salt and fresh ground pepper. The green peppers were unbelievably delicious! Take a look at the photo below.
The cucumber plants have grown rapidly – fresh green leaves and climbing straight and tall on the nets. I’m sure to enjoy cucumber this season! Here’s today’s photo of the cucumber plants.
I received a single zucchini plant from a friend and planted it too for the first time. I found large yellow flowers coming up quite quickly and dropping off quite quickly too and no sign of any zucchini. I wonder whether a single plant will ever yield zucchinis! I need to read up. Here is a snap of the same.
Finally, I couldn’t resist these pretty flowers in full bloom in my garden. Here they are!
And until the next post – have a great weekend!
