Not to mention loving your DH Karen. LOL
My tomatoes were early this year, and are all finished, but I have planted some more. I'm trying to keep up the water to them and have covered them with shadecloth to get through this heat wave. I have started picking zucchini's though

Nice zucchinis ES.

Karen your DH is great using the TMX, maybe you could send him over here to give my DH a few lessons.  :D

My DH does the gardening at our house.
We have lots of chilli plants, spinach, rosemary, lemon thyme, garlic chives, mint, coriander, Vietnamese mint.
Just took out the onions and shallots.  He has put in different beans and bitter melon.

My brother-in-law has his veggie garden in the front and its amazing.

Of course ES!!   :D :D

mcmich I am indeed very lucky that DH is so good at using thermie - but that is one of the great things about the machine, it is so easy to use.  I can just leave out a recipe, or even leave a recipe half-done, and he can just pick it up and run with it.  Wont be long and I can start training the kids to use it too, and then my cooking days are over  ;) ;) ;D

You're not just a pretty face Karen, very wise too.  8)  ;D
While my DH loves to cook, he won't try out the TMX, he has been to several classes too and loves them. More of your traditional cook.

Nothing wrong with being a traditional cook!

I'm afraid that the only tool my DH uses in the kitchen is the telephone

We went away for the long weekend, and my zucchini's exploded whilst we were away. The button squash is as big as my fist!
