Fruits (or Vegetables) of our Labor

Some of you have kept up with our first garden. In May we planted 2 beefsteak tomato plants, one grape tomato plant, one squash plant, and one bell pepper plant with great hopes of not having to buy tomatoes, bell peppers, or squash all summer. Above you will see the fruits of our labor....no, not the pretty tomato in the bowl, not the great looking grape tomatoes in the container, but one piddly squash. Sure we had about 4 grape tomatoes earlier in the summer but they didn't make it in the house after Jackson found them on the vine. All that labor for one squash. We'll see what the remainder of the summer/fall brings us. There's always next year right?
