Peas, anyone?

Last year, it was the abundance of tomatoes and squash. We had so many, we couldn't give them away fast enough. Now, for the first time, we have JUST the right amount of something....PEAS......just "love 'em". We have a perfect crop of cream crowder peas. They came in at just the right time and are yummy, yummy, yummy. We have eaten several meals of them and shared several meals with friends. Given some away to friends and I canned 27 pints of them and we still have "maybe" a couple more pickings. Anyway, whatever it is, is PERFECT. Our tomatoes this year have been just "so-so" and the squash while they tasted really good, has had a weird crop. Evidently, they cross-pollinated with each other and made very interesting shapes and colorings.......ever seen spotted squash? But they taste really good, so.........They won't win the judges award and they aren't as prolific as usual. Better luck next year. The watermelons are still doing okay, the corn was small but fantastic tasting (got about 9 quarts of them and several meals) The corn crop just kind of snuck up on us and was ready before we knew it. Irregardless, good veggies! Now it is getting really hot and no matter
how much we water, it isn't enough, so I am going to say it is time to call it a season.

Almost forgot, we did get a small amount of Kentucky wonder beans to make about 2 meals and I canned a couple of pints (the brownish colored ones above whereas the greenish ones are cream peas)
