but it hailed pretty bad here and my poor lil garden got beat down to the ground!

the onions!! Just Friday we were talking about how big and beautiful they were!!!  :'(



and the Potatoes!! (MY GOD the Humanity!! Vegetability!!)



and the sweet potatoes (a moment of silence please...)



and




and





Brace yourselves...






the more sensitive amongst you might want to turn away...




my TURNIP GREENS!!!  :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(




but we are a hardy people...I am keeping a strong upper lip! WE WILL CARRY ON!! and as GOD is my witness we will NEVER be HUNGRY AGAIN...

(ok I am alright now....*whew*)

Last year we got about a hundred pounds of potatoes and this year I planted about six times as many... ::)

What was I thinking?

I am gonna let Don dig THOSE up...

Maybe it was the Irish in you? Glad to hear your garden rebounded!
