I took these pictures this morning before work. The tomatoes don't know what's coming - they're still blooming...
I picked the veggies that weren't terribly small or totally unripe...
I also took a few minutes to use my senses to observe and try to memorize the sights, textures, and scents of warm weather gardening. I rubbed the leaves of the pineapple sage between my fingers and took in the delicate pineapple scent...
I noticed a new rose bloom...
And I fingered the velvety soft flowers of the Mexican Bush Sage.
We brought a lot of plants inside. I had good intentions of cleaning up and de-bugging these plants before bringing them in, but didn't get around to it. Oh well, the kitties will surely take care of the bugs. (Garden blogger Persephone has some good tips for bringing your plants in, if you're more organized/less last minute than I am!)
Speaking of the kitties, do you see Gracie behind two of the "new" pots? She thinks she's hidden!

Hey Ginger, Have you seen the pictures from downtown tonight. It's snowing like crazy. Maybe it is at your house too. Not mine, not yet. Hubbie just said it's starting.
I can't believe you were still having veggies producing like that. How nice.
I think it's great to take the time to appreciate the garden one last time before it's mostly gone for the winter. That's a nice last harvet! I see Gracie, she does look cozy.
I lost my Mexican Bush Sage a few years ago, you reminded me I need to replace it! LOL I picked veggies the other day also. My toms are the same way!
Have a great day!
*hugs*deb
