a walk through the garden

A few weeks back Maria thoroughly enjoyed our visit with Great Aunt Lou and Uncle Bubby. Relatively speaking it was a cool day for August so we "toured" the vegetable garden, hung out with the resident dog Bruno (M is always happy when a r.d. is present ;) ), ate crawfish pie (lots of it!), and M's favorite moment - stuffed our cheeks with figs!














hmm... looks like it'll make good fried eggplant to me!














gypsy peppers, a yummy solution to Dada's distaste for bell peppers ;)


















wandering through the okra with a total "Dada thinking" face! and check out those ladybug kicks from her Quita!














grapes... balls? tomato... tomato? It's all the same to a 1 yr old

FIGS!!! When I wasn't looking, M wandered herself clear across the yard back to this fig tree and just started picking away!














...and then she totally stuffed her cheeks!
