A Harvest Handful and a Pot of Soup

Despite the efforts of Ike's damaging winds....we had a few bean plants survive!


We also had a few other things survive, including this huge patio tomato plant (although it did get folded in half)
Anyway, here is what I picked from the garden this morning to use in a wonderful pot of soup...
No, those aren't the world's largest green beans, they are the worlds smallest Orange Bell Peppers! Their flavor makes up for their petite size. In the picture above, there are green beans, rosemary, sage, basil, 2 bay leaves, a crazy hot pepper, and 3 patio tomatoes. You can find the soup recipe here. With our own fresh ingredients, this pot of soup and loaf of bread cost around $5!
