Long overdue update

Man has our garden been growing! We have learned a few things in the 3 months since we started this project:

*cucumbers are insane, very bossy, and are trying for total garden domination
*zucchini have leaves that belong in dinosaur land
*I don't use that much basil when I'm cooking
*tomatoes take a really long time to turn red
*it takes a lot of water to keep this going, especially as it gets hotter

We have pulled out the basil plant since I never used any of it and Ryan planted corn seeds. Those have shot up over night. It is so fun to see what is ready to be picked each morning when we go out to water.

Here's what we've harvested so far:
*7 zucchini
*5 cherry tomatoes
*2 green beans
