garden spuds
The first autumn rain and snowfall combination of the year brought us a half inch of rain and then 4-5 inches of snow last night and today. Snow is still lightly falling and may continue tomorrow.

ReplyDeleteLovely potatoes. we will have to try Yukon Gold next year.
:0) Soooo does this qualify as a frost???
ReplyDeleteIt's even cool in southern California...
How exciting! Thank you for sharing. And the potatoes--great photo.
ReplyDeleteBecause potatoes are exactly what you need when it's cold out!
ReplyDeleteThey say that storm is headed here at the end of the week...but hopefully we will only get flurries!!! Keep the home fires burning. Dianntha
ReplyDeleteI hope New England doesn't decide to get its' first snowfall while we are traveling there. :)
ReplyDeleteI don't know about you but I LOVE snow at the beginning of winter but by March I dread it.
Ohmygosh! It's so early! I hope that's not coming our way LOL!
ReplyDeleteOh, my gosh! I'm not ready for that yet. Our leaves are just starting to turn. And that spud looks huge!
ReplyDeleteOh wow! Look at that potato! I don't think I have ever had a homegrown potato but you are making me wish I could.
ReplyDeleteOh my! I am soooo not ready for snow yet!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks everybody for your comments! I love reading each one. You all express my sentiments about "not being ready for snow," but honestly, I don't mind it too much IF it melts off in a day or two. The sun is shining today, so I'm hopeful.
ReplyDeleteIf you've never eaten a homegrown potato, you're really missing out. They are so easy to grow.

Good instincts, harvesting your herbs and digging your spuds before the first snowfall. Those are some might-fine looking, XL yukons! Love them mashed (skins on) with garlic and butter ~ so yummy!
ReplyDeleteOh...it looks so cold. I'm up here in Alaska and we can see the snow on the mountain tops. No snow on the ground here, but have cleaned up the yard and garden. Your potatoes look great. You have great blog, I love it. I check it almost every day. Thanks for sharing. P.S. I have made your sourcream twist a few times this summer for my young adults and their family. Love them. Penny
ReplyDeleteOh I am not ready for snow. I started bring my flowers i off the porch today..
ReplyDeleteI love snow , if I don't have to drive in it.
Stay warm.
STorybook Woods,
ReplyDeleteFall surely IS here. Almost feels wintry.
Dixymiss,
I love my taters with garlic and butter too. MMmmm.
Penny,
I'm glad you're here visiting and I'm especially happy to know that your family likes the Twists! They are SO good. Here's hoping Alaska get some snow soon!
Grandma Elsie,
I brought my geraniums into the garage with hopes that I might still get to set them on the front porch for a few more weeks. They'll have to stay in there for the weekend because it's supposed to get really cold here. I'm still hopeful for a few more warm, fall days.

We get so little snow here that I'm amazed by the idea you've already gotten your first snowfall. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAnd that is one amazing potato. Potatoes are on my list for the garden. It seems silly not to grow our own, especially when they're so delightful in every way.
