Harvest before the rain

Yesterday morning I decided to quickly harvest some veggies before the rain arrived.

The capsicums, chillies and eggplants are still producing.

Yellow, red, chocolate-y capsicums, chillies, eggplants, yellow tomatoes, etc. in the basket.

2 Golden Nugget plants yielded this box full. More than enough to satisfy any pumpkin cravings. Should we ever get those again. (We had far too many pumpkins last year.)

Then I snacked on the last of the Heritage Raspberries. How much healthier can breakfast get?

By the way, the rain gauge showed 79mm of rain this morning!

  1. I am so envious of you golden nuggets, I planted some seed this year and not one plant made it to flowering stage. Never mind there's always next year.

  2. Hi VG,
    I am worry about my pumpkins. The books I read said that I have to wait until vines dry to harvest. I've put bricks under the pumpkins, I hope they won't rot!
