freeze warning

it looks as if the wonderful warm weather is coming to an end.  we have our first freeze warning of the season tonight.  darry and i had to bring in the plants that have been outside for the season.  now the cats will have something to do-shred my plants.  lucy is quite fond of lemon grass and the plant was looking beautiful and full if you recall earlier posts, she will have plenty of it to chew on.  

we harvested some of the pak choi and asparagus.  last winter the pak choi did fine in the garden during the cold months and we are hoping it survives the frost.

knowing that the old tomato vines wouldn't make it through the freeze, darry took them out and he picked all of the tomatoes on them.  we now have a large basket of tomatoes wrapped in paper in the basement.  we are hoping that they will ripen slowly and not all at once so that we can enjoy them. 

we also had to pull some of the pepper plants.  they were loaded with fruit.  as you can see here, we have some produce to eat.  

over in the lettuce patch we have a nice variety of greens to pick from.  here in the sink is a mix of mizuna, lolla rosa, garden cress, oaky red splash, italienischer and lau's pointed leaf.
