In the Garden

It is such a thrill to grow one's own food. Today I dug up about 25 icicle radishes. I had initially thought they were spinach, until I saw their little round root tops poking up out of the soil. I also harvested a few baby chioggia beets. The tomatoes and cucumbers are growing nicely.

I just tasted the radishes: feh. They are beautiful looking, but too tough to chew. I think maybe this is because I didn't do anything to the soil. Oh well. The beets were lovely roasted and tossed in a salad with goat cheese.
