I grew up in a family of gardeners, but my husband and I only recently started gardening ourselves a few years ago. Nothing better than enjoying the fruits (and veggies) of your labor! ;) Peppers are also my favorite thing to grow. Our yard is rampant with squirrels and they always get to our tomatoes before we can! Beautiful veggies you have there!
Pesky squirrels!! It seems like peppers are the least likely to die on me. Sometimes I forget to water and I think that helps as they are so heat tolerant. Glad you've starting gardening! I think it's a fantastic thing to do as a couple. Nurturing something together can only be good in my opinion :)
