last of my gardens' goodies

The last goodies from my garden...I was very fortunate and had plenty of wonderful veggies this summer.  Although we have a few peppers still hanging on and the herbs that survived the tomato plants, we are pretty much finished for the season.  I was able to try so many wonderful recipes and found a few new favorites (check back later today for the recipes).

Now it's time to pick apples, pumpkins and try homemade apple butter and honey from the local farms.  I just love fall in Virginia... and the wine isn't so bad either.
