Over the weekend I had relatives spending time here sleeping overnight. They returned from the Valleyfair Amusement Park late at night and it was pitch black outside. My niece wanted to check out my garden so I grabbed a flashlight taking her and her kids out back into my garden. Well once the light shone on the strawberries my 5 year old grand-neice smiled saying, "Ohhhh Uncle Bob you have strawberries." I said, "Go ahead and pick then honey." She then saw big ones and small onse saying, "big one, littele one, big one little one." over and over and not picking any. I smiled, "Pick them all honey." Then she went on a rampage picking almost all the red strawberries. then her mom, muy neice hit the tomatoes. Well I don't have any red ones left niow. It was a fun time sharing with family that lives a few hundred miles away though. Did you have any out of towen visitors? Do you share any of your garden with family that lives a distance from you?

It sounds like you are as great a Uncle as you are a Grandpa and a dad not to mention a friend. There are some people who would not allow anyone much less kids pick things in their gardens. I love watching kids admire the small things in life.


myLot reputation of 97/100. webeishere (11558)   ranked 1 out of 737 in vegetables  6 months ago

Well what can I say. I am so loved by my family and friends etc. Hee hee! Thanks.

I don't really have a garden worth sharing. No green thumb here but luckily my grandma shares hers with me. Her thumb is all shades of green so I can get some fresh veggies and some pretty flowers any time I want.:)


myLot reputation of 97/100. webeishere (11558)   ranked 1 out of 737 in vegetables  6 months ago

Same as my thumb it seems. Thanks also.
gardens are so beautiful when well maintained.

Hi Grandpa Bob,
That was awfully nice of you to share your bounty with family members. Makes you feel so good too. I like to share my bounty with family as well. They don't even have to come from any distance. If I have, then I will share. It's the thing to do, especially with family, and friends.

Have a nice day..


myLot reputation of 97/100. webeishere (11558)   ranked 1 out of 737 in vegetables  6 months ago

I share it with the neighbors as well as family and friends. Thanks.

Man I have cucumebres each year growing all over. I give so many away to the neighbors, friends, and family. Plus I pickle a lot as well. Already have the kids asking for their jars of pickles this year. They aren't even ripe yet. HAHAHA!

myLot reputation of 98/100. checapricorn (8516)   ranked 118 out of 737 in vegetables  6 months ago

So for pickles Grandpa, it is ideal to wait until it is ripe? I have not tried that since in my Country, i always eat it fresh! I love the idea..Since, I can catch up eating all our harvest..LOL! I am the only one who loves it..LOL!happylol

I plan to have a nice garden next year and will share it with my family when they visit from Arizona and Florida. My two little tomato plants are getting very tall! That's all I have to boast about this year. lol

As you know, Grandpa Bob, I don't have a garden. I do have the blackberries around the perimeter of the property, and some flowers that comes up there also, but that is all. If I did have family come I would go all out for them, even if I don't have a garden. You are such a great uncle.. you're just a great person Grandpa... and I love hearing stories like this one. happy

Oh how sweet! It must be nice to have something in the garden to share with family! We moved in late May and got our garden in quite late at the new house so there is nothing to pick as yet! I would love to have some family to visit us and perhaps we will soon. My oldest son visited soon after we moved in when we were still living out of boxes. Perhaps the next time he visits it will be more enjoyable for him. In the past we have always had quite a bountiful garden and I take bags of extras to work and give it away. I hope to be able to do that soon with our new garden at our new house.


myLot reputation of 97/100. webeishere (11558)   ranked 1 out of 737 in vegetables  6 months ago

My stuff is all starting to pop now.
When he comes back take him to the garden inspecting and picking maybe.
I really like seing others faces from their enjoyment of my garden goodies.
