Cold Weather ... Here It Comes!

The predicted low for tonight is 35 degrees.  Tomorrow night?  29 degrees!

Late this afternoon I picked all the peppers, the pole beans, and the best of the remaining zinnias.  The expected freeze will finish everything off tomorrow night.  In the meantime, we have a lovely centerpiece on the kitchen table, a mess of green beans to cook up, and enough jalapeños to make a batch of hot pepper jelly.

I also installed the support system and placed row cover over the lettuce and spinach bed.  Everything's tucked in, nice and tidy, ready for winter to overtake the garden.
