I adore your parents garden. Greatness from the Great Earth. Thankyou.

WOW, that looks amazing. I am never too good a growing things, but I should try here in Cali. when I get a house someday. People tell me it is so easy to grow stuff here in this state.

I love homegrown veges, the garden is great.

hehe cucumber gimchi rocks (it is my fav gimchi)

The garden is just gorgeous! Thanks so much for your words of support on the smoking-cessation thing. Good to know.

Nice work by your parents! This reminds me abit of the garden my grandparents have behind their house in Brooklyn only they don't grow herbs.  But they do grow some gigantic squash and melons.  There is nothing like eating fresh produce from the garden.  I bet  that salad was quite tasty :D

Enjoy your meals at Tribeca Grill and Waterfront.  Can't wait to hear about your experiences.

Wendy,  Beautiful garden.  I have some veggies in some large pots.   Tomatoes and lots of basil.  Basil was going crazy so I found this great recipe for basil hummus.  Fabulous and so easy.  Enjoy your garden.  It is so delicious.    Jeanne @ JeanneHartmanActorsDetective.com

you have an OUTDOOR herb garden!!! WOW... =)

you are such a good daughter, taking care of things while your parents are away.

I had this last night. I accidentally threw out the insides. Thot I was supposed to. haha. duh

Oh, baby corn!

i love plants... i have a lot of home..but small ones.. like strawberry, peppers, tomatos, basil.. etc..........

We were digging up the yard this year, and moving stuff around, so all I have are a few patio tomatoes which are sick looking (4 plants, maybe 4 meals....) and herbs.  I use my herbs all the time.  Cilantro, basil, and parsley for salads, eggs.  I also love my one arugula plant...it keeps producing and producing and adds so much flavor.  I haven't used my rosemary at all....maybe I'll pick up some lamb, or maybe even put it on some chicken.  Nothing like going outside and picking your own.  I also have never seen a Chinese cucumber in r/l or at the growers.  Can you save me some seed>  haha

Wow, your parents really got a real feel for California. It sounds like everyone's ok and it wasn't a big one, but it'd surely get MY attention.

I'd love a little plot to grow my own veg and fruit, the blog makes me want to plot my own little garden and perhaps have some chickens for eggs...In a dream mode now...I've never seen a chinese cucumber before, interesting.

Have you heard from them?  Were they near the earthquake that happened in the LA area???

Great looking garden, by the way!  =)

oh... nice garden... =) lots to harvest... hehee..

Sound Yummy!   :)

haha these cucumbers - i am always a tad suspicious.. cos of the shape.. not the good looking of things you want to eat.. but they do taste GOOD....

Wow, this looks better than my mint--maybe its too warm here in North Carolina, my mint always dies back in the heat of summer.  Also, I see you have mulch and shade--my sad mint has neither.
