Garden still producing mid September!!!

Our cherry sun-sugar tomatoes and yellow tear drop still producing like crazy !!! we had a couple heirloom brandy-wine and heirloom pineapple tomatoes.
Los mini tomatitos de la variedad Azucar del Sol y los de la variedad Lagrima Amarilla siguen produciendo a lo loco!!! Pudimos cosechar un par de los Brandy-Wine y Heirloom Anana 
This little fella is going to end up on my plate latter that night.
Y este tomatito termino en my plato a la noche...

I got this cherry tomatoes as a "trial" or test. My wife  +sheryl frank  was skeptical about the flavor profile of these tomatoes, but once we harvest a handful, she was surprised for good!!
Consegui este tipo de tomates para probar que tal eran, y my esposa no estaba convencida que el sabor no fuera bueno, pero una vez que la planta produjo un puñado, se sorprendio de lo bueno que eran!!

A very beautiful morning I must say.
Tengo que decir que esta es una muy linda mañana.

YUM!!!
Que rico!!

These tear drop with the morning dew... 
Estos Lagrimas Amarillas con el rocio matinal...

I have to admit, +sheryl frank is getting good at taking picts...
Tengo que admitir que mi esposa saca muy buenas fotos...

Look at these bell peppers!! Not ready to be picked yet, still need to change color to orange or yellow.
Mira estos pimientos morrones!!, Todavia no estan listos para ser cosechados y tienen que cambiar el color a amarillo o naranja.

2 out of the 6 bell pepper plants have 12 fruits each... the rest are between 7 and 9 peppers. Looking at this picture, you can see a new flower is there and where it is the flower, the pepper will grow!!!
 2 de las 6 plantas de pimientos morrones tienen unos 12 morrones cada una. El resto de las plantas tienen entre 7 y 9 morrones cada una. Mirando esta foto, se puede ver que hay una flor, y en donde esta la flor, mas tarde aparecera un morron !!

One of our lettuce plant.
Una de las plantas de lechuga.
