Vegetables!

... It's starting to look like a real vegetable garden!

The cucumbers are taking off:

Don't know why this flipped on it's side. Sorry!

Tomatoes of all shapes sizes and colors Nix the colors part, hopefully they will ripen some day. 

The first two cobs are getting bigger. There are six more in the garden now too.

 Another green bell pepper!
