We have seen for the first time now the Machinaw and Casper eggplants we put in the ground more than 3 months ago, little tiny fruit, no bigger than 1.5 inches have appeared - very exciting. The Machinaw is a from of Japanese eggplant so it will be great in our Thai Curry and other Asian cooking dishes. The Casper, yes so named because it is a white eggplant, is supposed to have a thinner skin than the traditional Italian Eggplant and we hope to be able to slice bread and bake/fry that for various Italian dishes.
Equally exciting is the appearance of little itty bitty melons, really no bigger than a large jaw breaker at this point and so cute!
Things continue to move along out in the garden, we have one mystery squash, I'll have to post a picture of it and see if anyone out there knows what it is, I'll do that next week.
