Garden Update

I hope you remembered that I posted My Magical Garden!! a while ago. Today, I would like to share with you how big they are.

Wow! My tomato plants are growing out of control, aren't they?

The chili plant is full of chilies, who wants to help me eat them???

One more chili plant, Thai basil and garlic scapes which I didn't get to cook them so I gave it to kmouse.

This giant plant popped out from the ground and keeps growing... and growing... way too big. I'm not sure it's a pumpkin or watermelon because I like to throw their seeds over that area. We'll see!!!

More tomatoes!

My first ripe tomatoes!

I just picked the red tomatoes yesterday and ate them all by myself, so fresh, so sweet and so juicy! I'm loving it!!!

My Magical Garden & My Favorite Eats!!!

Here they are, as promised.....My Cherry Tomato Plants!!!! They are growing soooo....bigggg...., just like magic!!

If you look at them closely, you'll see that they have been already producing green tomatoes. I know, each of them is different in size even though I give them the same amount of love and care. Oh, I love them all sooooo much!!!

Let's look closely at my baby #1.

Do you see that tiny green worm?

Soooooo cute!!!

This is my magical garden!!!

The lovely comments I received from my viewers made me feel so lucky that I have such a wonderful garden. I can't be any happier than this. Thank you all so very much, I really appreciate your feedback.

This is the tray of my Mother's Day Breakfast that my son made for me. He made my coffee with vanilla soy milk and a teaspoon of raw sugar, apple cinnamon oatmeal and my favorite Tomato Smoothie. I am so proud of him, he even did the clean up nicely!!! Nathan...You're the best and I love you so much!!!

Note: Nathan made a "Strawberry Milk Shake Oreo Smoothie" for himself. He's crazy for this smoothie and asked me to tell everyone to try to make it. I found this recipe from For The Love of Food .

Chickpea Blondies

I can't say good-bye without sharing with you my favorite dessert. I made this healthy and tasty dessert last week but I just photographed the last 2 pieces of my left-over after I got my camera back. If you want to know why Diann said she loves these chickpea blondies soo much, you should try to make it. Here is recipe. I used whole wheat flour instead of brown rice flour and I add crushed cashew nuts on top. Mine came out just perfect, I love it so much and I'll definitely make it again and again and again!!!!

An Inspiration!!!

My husband has been out of town since last week. I miss him so much and can't wait for him to come back home. WHY??? Because I really NEED the camera he took with him, hahaha!!!

Well, without my favorite camera, I can't have great pics of what I have been cooking!!!

While I'm looking through "My Pics" and thinking what I should post on my blog today. I then recalled that this inspired me so much when I saw her beautiful garden. Now I know why I have tons of pics of plants from my tiny garden.


Do you see the tomato plants at the right corner of the above pic? I planted them on 4/12 in different spots. #1 in a very large planter, #2 in a smaller one and #3 & #4 in the ground.


On 4/23, they were growing bigger. Do you see the yellow buds? Next week, I will show you how big they are when I have my camera back, I promise!!
Last but not least, these are my lovely kitchen plants: parsley, sweet basil, Thai basil (under the white stool), chili, mint and my sweet tangerine. Oh, almost forgot!! Look at the right corner ~ do you recognize that plant? What is that? I believe it is garlic scape!! You can get a recipe for garlic scapes from She Ate What???.
