a lot of squash in our future

It's raining in Arizona.

Wherever I am, whether in the valley of the sun or on a moody coast in California, I seem to delude myself into thinking that every drop is meant for me.

Drip
Because Veronica will love the smell

Drip
Because her fondest memories surface in muddy puddles

Drip
Because she's trying to grow a garden in Arizona


Welcome to the Oasis: Carrots, lettuce, red potatoes, butternut squash, yellow squash, tomatoes, jalapeƱo, cantaloupe, peppers, watermelon, onions, iris bulbs (my favorite flower), and corn. It's quite the grocery list.

Is there such a thing as squash salsa?
I think we'll be inventing it in a few months.

Congrats on starting your garden! We're doing the same thing over here in CA - learning so much along the way!

Let me know how your experiment goes. Don't think we'll get a garden in this year but would love tips on growing things in Arizona!

Can I just tell you how jealous I am that you're growing a garden?! I've always wanted to do so but where we are in LA the space is a little tight. Your selection looks amazing and the garden looks so pretty! Good luck and keep us updated :) xoxo

What the heck??? Butt squash??? Only you and Steven would be so funny about a garden-variety garden! Have the bugs discovered it yet? Hope everything's blooming in your world!
