The roses are dead;

The cornstalks are dried.

Everything left in my garden looks fried.

However, this entry would not be complete without a tribute to my most amazing husband. While I was out of town visiting my parents for the last 2 weeks, he finished out our harvest. All that's left dead in the garden is one cucumber, a bunch of tiny tomatillos, and a handful of green tomatoes. Not bad. And I bundled up some of the dried cornstalks to decorate my front porch today, so all that's left is to pull out the dead plants and put away the fences, stakes & towers until next spring.

And to make some pickles, relish and salsa to enjoy until next harvest!
