It makes me crazy happy to decide I want basil or cilantro in something and just hop right outside to get it. Best gardening idea ever, putting those two so close to the house.

I have something like 20 little squashes growing, and an absurd number of tomatoes, all now on 5' tall plants tied to stakes & the fence. Hurry up! I want to be able to decide that I want cherry tomatoes and just go pluck a handful.

Anyone want squash? Tomatoes? Or massive banana peppers? The squash especially is going to overwhelm me quickly. The peppers are coming in now, and the squash I'm guessing 2 weeks. My parents brought cucumbers and jalapenos to the beach with them; I am jealous, since neither of those is producing tastiness for me yet.
