No! Not that kind of growing! I swear I'm not pregnant (would I be blogging? No, I'd be barfing).
Growing food! We planted our garden in March and we are finally harvesting!
Made some yummy huevos rancheros with these baby tomatillos: 
Still waiting for these squashies, and by the rate squash's grow I don't think that'll be very long.
I'm an avid composter (ask my husband what happens when he mistakenly throws banana peels in the garbage!) and sometimes it doesn't all break down into organic matter like it's supposed to, sometimes it sprouts and grows! Like this volunteer onion:
I also have a mystery volunteer plant that isn't pictured here, I think it might be a canteloupe! Our little tomatoes are coming along, no red ones yet!
We get maybe 1 or 2 strawberries every few weeks, but at least the kids get something out of the garden they really like:
This years gardening has been amazing, I especially enjoy the tomatilloes, they seem to grow even better than the tomatoes and squash and I am a sucker for green salsa!I won't even pretend though, that my garden is half of what my dad's is. I just went over there on Saturday and picked about 6 pints of boysenberries. They get that many every 3 or 4 days!! My mom makes mouthwatering jam out of them and I'm trying to get her to enter it in the fair!
