Garden Update: Cranberry Beans!

These were picked today. There are many more on the plants. I think I will let most of them dry out to store for fall.

I am having limited success with growing vegetables. The cranberry beans are the stars performers. The sweet purple asparagus is coming along as expected for a first year. The corn horn okra is growing tall and the pods are developing. My tomatoes have been disappointing so far. I am learning, and next year I will change where I plant them. The one summer I had a stellar crop they were planted in the ground and ignored. I might go back to that. You live and you learn, and some of us are slower than others, or more distracted.

On another topic–I am having success in my kitchen learning different cold lentil salad recipes. I also have been playing with a new air fryer. Wow! I made stuffed peppers and cooked them in the air fryer, and they were good. What a time saver.

My name is Katherine J. Krein. I lost my father in June of 2013, and then I lost my mother in November of the same year. After they both died I went through a mind-warping number obsession that has taken me years to control. This is my story. It is now 2026. I still use this site to post some poems and thoughts. My obsession has faded, however, I still notice the numbers. Faith, hope, and love is what guides me now.
