What the Boss Likes… kinda – tomato travails
I've tried to grow some veg and herbs this year. My monster tomato plant (seen here) has made these itty bitty Black Krim tomatoes: Now, I do have a larger one growing on a smaller plant but I seem cursed with tiny tomatoes: teeny tomato
What the Boss Likes – celebration of a random number and some garden pictures
10,000 comments on my blog. About a third of them my own. and the photos I didn't realize these could have double spathes.

What the Boss Likes – the garden
Just some photos of the garden and my deck top veggie "farm". I rather like the "crop cages" I found on amazon to keep the squirrels and other pests out. They also seem to give just enough diffusion of strong sun and keep in a bit of moisture too. Currently, I have various herbs, culinary … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – the garden

From the Kitchen, from the Bar and from the garden: a meandering post about various things
I haven’t had a food and drink post for awhile. A handful of weeks ago we decided to see if we could grill whole Cornish hens on our small barreled shaped grill. We didn’t want to butterfly them which would be simpler, but to have a little whole chicken for each of us. Many years … Continue reading From the Kitchen, from the Bar and from the garden: a meandering post about various things
What the Boss Likes – Our garden
The weather in south-central PA has been great for our garden. I thought I'd show a few photos of our tiny, in-the-city plot. And the formatting is giving me fits. Red simple roses in an old frost box. Our wooden fence is due for replacing but I like its weathered look. There is comfrey to … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – Our garden
