Carrot, Mint and Tea

I harvested 1 carrot today!
I think the others may be ready but I dug up one and will eat it before I go any further. It was so much fun to dig this little baby out of the ground. I was just checking for the top and seeing if it was over 3/4 inch in diameter...
I was so excited to see that it was!!!

Here's a shot of the whole garden, you can see the large green carrot tops over taking the place. My broccoli is also coming right along, you can see it in the front and left side of the garden. I also clipped the lettuce right down to the ground and will dig it up after I see what it does.
I also have decided with the lemon balm I have I need to start making our own ice tea. I clipped some leaves today and made some hot tea, yummy I might say!

I also harvested some mint, here's a shot of today's bounty:

My next project is to get my second raised bed ready for new plantings. Steve built it for me now I need a little time to prep it for plantings!
