So I came home from visiting my family in two different places that took ten days. Here's how my pot garden greeted me.

Rainbow Swiss Chard begging to be picked

Habaneros waiting to marry peaches  to become peach-habanero hot sauce

Steve's name is on each one

Over ripe figs 

as well as wilting figs

So the figs decided to ripen while I was gone. After all the care I put into them.  There were about 8 wilted, fallen and bug-eaten figs that escaped me. Losing even one fig is a fig too many.I am glad  the figs are not ripening all at the same time.I still had a few enough to make me a small jar of fig jam. It is sooo good on toasted potato bread.
