LOL! you know I went years without having a veggie garden, I had gone 100% ornamental. I had this rose collection forever of hundreds of roses... then i got into herbs and whatnot.. got into irises for a while and then settled on cacti and succulents. Now I like cacti and succulents mixed with roses. I love a blanket of sedums or sempervivums around yuccas, prickley pears, and under the roses. This year I decided to go back to veggie gardening and built and am building several raised beds. I have a bunch of seed, but don't have room for 168 different varieties of tomatoes.. so i'm trying out a few things at a time. In the end (like this weekend) I will finalyl have out:

potatoes (2 kinds, red skinned and big baking potatoes)

yams

peanuts (virginia)

chayote

ginger

garlic

tomatoes (red, white, pink, purple, striped, bicolor, yellow, orange, brown, furry yellow... cherries and full-size.. opted out of green this year)

peppers (red bell, planted a mix packet which could contain green, white, purple, orange, yellow sweets, also planted a hot mix packet which is mostly habenero reds)

sunflowers

green okra

yellow and green flat italian-style pole beans

flageolet french beans

yellow wax and green bush beans

3 kinds of pole beans, all green, one of them is a yard-long asparagus bean

lemon cukes and sumter cukes (green pickling-type)

grey and green zucchini

yellow crookneck squash

bennington green tint scallop squash

tromboncino squash

butternut squash

4 kinds of "pumpkins" (blue, pink, deep red, green-orange)

2 kinds of watermelons (moon and stars and crimson sweet)

2 kinds fo eggplant (green, purple)

onions-- bunching green and bulbing red

spinach-- NZ and regular

bright lights swiss chard

4 kinds of beets (red, long, striped, yellow)

bok choy

dill

parsley

purple and green basil

armenian cucumbers (remember githa in Jordan? these are the same thing, really a melon but used like a cuke)

angled edible luffa gourds

nasturtiums

cauliflower

carrots (red, white, yellow, purple, orange)

cabbage (red and chinese)

radishes (watermellon and pink beauty)

lettuce (red, green, and spotted)

marigolds

broccoli (spiral)

kohlrabi (purple)

Some things like the lettuce, etc are actually cool-weather plants I am going to rotate in in the summer. Probably add peas to that list. It's majorly about diet actually. I love eating fresh food and I figure this way i can have what i want fresh

Ammar is back to calling me "felaha."

Oh, I forgot. SOMEONE asked that I plant corn. So we have white corn and yellow corn (both sweet corns) and popcorn (strawberry and carousel, just went with both. Strawberry is red and carousel is multicolored.) I told SOMEONE he has to be in charge of the corn then. Corn doesn't thrill me.

Thank you Julianna! They were so big because I actually made it 39 1/2 weeks...ouch...lol. All the nurses at the hospital kept commenting on how big they were and how long I carried them. :0)

I know that's a huge worry with twins is that they are always born prematurely and are often very low-weight. So that's so awesome. no wonder you felt huge! I saw this woman at the mall whom I felt sorry for lol.. she clearly had twins and they were both launching off her vertebra/back of her ribs in two opposite directions. You could see these two different butts poking out of different sides of her stomach. I figured that was NOT fun. She looked like she was used to it though.

Congrats on all the new babies.

I tossed my back out on Wednesday and I'm taking Ibuprofren every 4 hours. This pain is unbearable! I never had this happen before.

You do get used to it and I think now I can tell which one of the twins was kicking my butt some days! I can tell by their movements now and how they kick, move their hands or how they sleep. :0) Amazing... Both of them already have such different personalities...Nour is calm and quiet and Zain is loud and in charge...LOL.
