Today's Harvest-broccoli, grapefruit and paper whites

Today's Harvest-broccoli, grapefruit and paper whites

I took this picture just minutes ago with my Blackberry phone, sent it to my self in an email from the phone, clicked on Blog in Picasa and now I am writing about it to you - too cool!

My Broccoli is growing quickly with all this warm weather we have had. Looks like my neighbor's (one is a gret chef) will get one of these tonight - maybe I could give him both of them and he could whip up something really yummy!!

The paperwhites are blooming all over the garden and this one now sits on my desk wherw I can smell its' heavenly scent while I wrok.

And the grapefruits are ready to eat. The crop is a little smaller this year - both less fruit and smaller fruit. Could be due to the 3.5 inches of rain we got ALL year in 2009? City water just isn't the same as rain water!

What are you eating form your edible yard?

Happy Nibbling!
