Remember a week ago or so, I said I was pretty sure I had an honest-to-goodness eggplant growing? Well here it is! I was right - it's an eggplant, all right. Actually looks like one and everything. This is from the front of the tub, the only place I ever look because, well, that's where I saw all the flowers.
So imagine my surprise when I saw this bad boy! Heck yeah, it is - another one! This one was hanging down the back, and I totally missed it in the dark when I was looking before. And picking beans. It's even bigger than the other one, though it's hard to tell that from the picture.
Still, I think they will both be ready close enough together to make something good. My thoughts are leaning toward eggplant parmesan. Now, I don't want to truly count my eggplant before they hatch, er... finish growing, but a girl can dream, can't she?
(And no, just like the squash, it's not my favorite thing in the world. But the taste is subtle, it soaks up flavor from what it's cooked with, it's good for you, and all that jazz. So yep - I'm going to load those babies down with cheese and stuff and bake 'em, Lol!)
There you have it - another update. More coming this week. Really. I mean it!
:)
