Happy Halloween

The ghost peppers are the Halloween stars of the garden. Something ate all of the leaves which I thought was impossible. They grew back. You just can’t keep a good ghost down on Halloween.

The temperature according, to the weather underground, supposedly dropped to 28 degrees Sunday. Nothing in the garden seemed to be affected. The greens don’t matter anyway. They get sweeter after a freeze. The okra, peppers, egg plants and tomatoes looked fine this morning.

The pumpkin, with which we were gifted, did not wind up as a jack-o-lantern. He wound up as a fantastic pumpkin soup. There is enough pumpkin “meat” left over to do it again.
