First calendula bud from my medicinal herb garden 
The rabbits didn’t attack this lettuce… Some other midnight snacker did. 
I’m in love with this lettuce. I have no idea what it’s called, but it’s gorgeous. Kinda crime-sceneish, but still lovely. 
Pardon my french, but I think this Romaine variety is Rouge d’hiver 
Garlic can be harvested when the bottom 3 leaves are wilted. This one was a test garlic that had 2.5 leaves half wilted. I’ll give the rest a couple more weeks. 
Baby eggplant, I will love you and take care of you all summer long because you are SO CUTE! This is actually a baby eggplant plant. Fruit gets 3″ long. 
This is our once-every-decade habanero for Josh. He makes dried habanero flakes that last 10 years 
Teeny baby kale plants! Hurry up and grow!!! We’re very hungry! 
Pretty flower from the side yard. Jack in the Green. Dumb name. 
A flower about to blossom. Maybe a gloriosa daisy? 
More flowers. Flowers are for gifting to people. I only want them in my yard until they’re pretty enough to chop down and put in a mason jar. I wish I had more cutting flowers. My zinnias are about 1/2 inch tall, so maybe this July?
That was a collection of snapshots from the garden today. I forgot to add the pic of my apocalyptic basil garden. Golly, there are probably 50 basil plants (Genovese, mostly) that are going to get me through 6-12 months in a survival bunker with an all you can eat pesto stash. I refuse to fight off zombies if the apocalypse managers feed me a diet of expired Spaghettios and Tang drink mix. I will not comply.
And…I weeded today. I must be getting super old and super boring because weeding is fun! I was always a boring gal, but admitting that I like weeding is truly tragic, just like a Shakespeare play. It’s a tragedy where everyone important dies, but the female heroine is alone in her garden pulling weeds, with a peaceful smile, and singing a song about english roses and fragrant lilacs, then the British army comes in and drags her off the stage. Scene.
