Got the #oddBunch box before our out-breakfast this morning. Not bad, though only one of us eats bell peppers (aka capsicum). I would've swapped that out if I'd known it was the 'surprise item' this week. Esp since we still have some from the prev week.
The little eggplant is a bit small to do usual things with (BBQ slices or baba-ganouj). I think that's a graffiti (aka Sicilian) eggplant.
Also need a more interesting spag squash use than pseudo-pasta applications, with sauce.
Spent two hours in the garden this morning. Last seeds in. Time for an update.
Cucumbers. Enormous and tiny pumpkin. Cantaloupe. Habañero. Cayenne. Jalapeno. Onion. Sunflowers of many types. Beans. Corn. Beets (not doing well). Green peppers. Ancho. Watermelon. Summer squash. Zucchini. 7 varieties of tomato. Butterfly bush. Marigolds. Vine flowers.
The first eggplant of the year! This is a variety called Shikou, a slender Asian type of eggplant.

Raised Bed Gardening for Florida Seniors
Raised bed gardening is one of the best choices for Florida gardeners, especially if you have mobility concerns, trouble bending, or want to reduce strain on your back and knees. Why Raised Beds Work So Well in Florida: - Better drainage — Florida's heavy rains drain quickly from raised beds - Control over soil quality — you fill with the exact mix your plants need - Less bending — beds can be built high enough to garden while sitting - Easier weed control — contained soil means […]https://floridaveggiegarden.wordpress.com/2026/05/25/raised-bed-gardening-for-florida-seniors/
