This is a journal of my vegetable gardens. Skippy was my first dog and he thought the garden was his, even though I did all the work. Now Suzie and Charley follow in his footsteps. We're located near Boston (USDA zone 6A). I have a community plot, a backyard vegetable garden, fruit trees, berry bushes, chickens, and bees. I use sustainable organic methods and do my best to grow all of my family's vegetables myself.

That looks fab.the pictures from sunny Florida and Avocado from the garden! Great to have parents down in Florida and how very nice to spend Christmas in the sun. I am jealous :)
Oh Tyra. I am afraid you are not getting much sun up in Sweden these days! But your greenhouse and plants are beautiful as always.
I had a wonderful time in Florida, but I am glad to be back at home.
Oh, YUM! I would kill to be able to grow avocados. I've never had a really, really fresh one.
My parents say that every avocado that falls from their trees has its own flavor. Each a little different. It depends on how ripe they are when they fall and how long they sit on the counter to ripen. They are all delicious! It is paradise - to walk out in the morning and find one or two enormous avocados lying on the lawn. My dad calls it manna from heaven.
You just gave me the urge to make guacamole.. and I've only just got up and have to go to work now! Looks wonderful, thanks for inspiring me.
Lovely photos. I love avocados and these look scrumptious. We also do them cut (with skin) into quarters, drizzled with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and herbs and herbs and grilled for a few minutes.
I also love grilled avocado, though I have never made them at home. They are a treat I have only had out at a restaurant.
