1. Nice!

That reminds me, I need to make dinner!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. Thanks so much, my dear 2naSalit!

Glad I could give you such a pretty reminder!

I'll be making mine pretty soon too.

5. I couldn't pick a favorite...

But they all reminded me that I was hungry!

And pretty is a good word for them!

3. X-rated, as usual

California, you clearly have unnatural desires when it comes to flora. I can put you in touch with a fine therapist who specializes in cases such as yours, which most therapists refuse to acknowledge the existence of, much less treat. You know how to get in touch. Please. Before it's too late and DU has to raise bail money.

Breath-taking and sexy as hell. The colors make me drool. Literally--like a mastiff.

4. You are waaaaay too funny, my dear cyclonefence!

Maybe you're the one who needs a therapist? Hmmm?

Thanks for your hilarious reply! So glad you enjoyed my obsession with vegetables!

7. Everything looks scrumptious!

Even the flowers! Apparently some flowers are edible!

Very, very, nice, Peggy.

9. Thanks very much, my dear Diamond_Dog!

I believe that nasturtiums are edible, but since I've never had one, I don't really know!

Thanks for your kind words.

10. You just HAD to do this??? Right before dinner??? Making us all hungry???

Seriously, though, all the images are absolutely gorgeous, and I thank you so much for sharing this beauty with us.

I still must live vicariously through your amazing photos, even though our market opened this past weekend. Little local produce yet, as our growing season has barely started.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

12. Aw, my dear niyad . . .

I would have posted them earlier, but my day had other ideas.

You know how I am about sharing. It makes me so happy than I can produce something so beautiful that you love to see it, every week.

11. Beautiful! Love the raspberry details.

What are the squashes that look like round zucchini?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

13. Thank you so much, my dear Mousetoescamper!

I have a million photos of the raspberries and still every week, I need more! Always trying to improve what I see.

That's exactly what those little round squashes are: round zuccini. I think they must be a variant on the standard ones, though I'm not sure.

14. Kick & Rec.

California's a great state - that's all I have to say.

My Wife & I always enjoy our trips there.

Thanks for the pics!

15. Thanks so much, my dear Hiawatha Pete!

California has its faults, and I mean besides the San Andreas fault! Still, it's a great place to live, work in and play!

And thank you for liking my pics!

16. LOL, Good one! (about the fault)
