Koszi Zsolt! One of the nice things about San Francisco is that we have a lot of fruits and vegetables grown here year round. But, the warmest part of the year doesn’t start until late August/early September, and only lasts through October. The rest of the time it is mild, but never really hot. Basically we have two seasons: spring, and rain, with a few weeks of “summer” in between.

Gorgeous! And wow, that pepper really is huge! (Unless everything else is merely miniature…)

Well, the watermelon was pretty small for a watermelon.
