This is a blog about growing vegetables for home use in the Pacific Northwest. We do raised-bed, intensive gardening using galvanized animal watering troughs as planter boxes. We collect and store rain water for our garden. Our blog records our learning process and experiences with this type of gardening.

Harvesting Our Summer Squash!
A week or so ago, we ate our first zucchini. Today, three more were ripe and ready to eat.
Robin made a delicious stir fry using one green and one yellow squash from today's harvest. Here's her recipe:
2 medium summer squash, sliced
2T olive oil
1T butter (for flavor)
1/2 ring turkey kielbasa, sliced
1 tomato, chopped
left over couscous
a pinch of dried currants
1/4 c roasted slivered almonds
cracked pepper to taste
Stir-fry the kielbasa until slightly browned and set aside. Heat olive oil and butter in skillet. Stir-fry squash until easily pierced with a fork. Add tomato and stir for about 1 minute. Add other ingredients and kielbasa. Stir to mix and serve immediately.
