This is the first year I have planted eggplant and it's been quite a successful venture. It is now time to pull up what little bit that is left of the summer garden and begin preparing for fall planting, however, I'm leaving for Mexico tomorrow ;) so that task will just have to wait! Somehow, I have a feeling when I return all will be exactly as I left it, but that's okay. Hopefully, a little sun and sand and long overdue R & R will recharge and rejuvenate me, but, it really would be nice if some wonderful 'garden fairy' would fill a little in while I'm gone....
