In all honesty though; I had to leave the care and maintenance up to my son and his girlfriend who live in back of us. Mike is great on watering...but doesn't know much else about gardening. Deena knows nothing about gardening...even watering. I gave her a beautiful flower plant and it was dead inside of a week. As for me, I had a severe arthritic hip that was finally replaced June 23 of this year. The rest of the summer (for the most part) was filled with physical therapy on my part. So, (other than the green beans, some zuchinni squash and both peppers (hot and sweet...planted apart, of course); my garden really sucked this year. The tomatoes were tiny and the okra didn't even come up. Truly disappointing. The worse garden I ever had...although my son 'tried' to help in his own way. One thing he did wrong was plant the corn in the same place as last year and overwatered it. The ears were full...but tasted mushy. Anyhow, I'm all better now and am looking forward to next gardening season. I have one question though...Recently, I purchased an emulsifier/blender/chopper and I want to start feeding my family different types of food. This 'blender' can do ANYTHING just about. I know this is pretty much a general question; but could you direct me to some links that would offer up recipes (all kinds...hot/cold...dietary...and 'comfort' foods) that I could make from this special blendar, including smoothies? This 'blendar' also has the capacity to make hot soup. (Am sure looking forward to trying that). It would be very much appreciated. (Others are welcome to email me with these suitable links as well...Please, no foul lanquage or course comments...) Thank you so much for your attention to this rather long email.
