Nice - this year I did tomatoes (Cherry and Big Boy). My problem was
that they were so close together I got a bunch of hybrids. They were
tasty though.

And the plants are budding again. I'm going to pull them inside with a
grow light. Make the law enforcement folks go crazy.

I also had zucchini, which btw is re-flowering too. And I also tried
dill and rosemary but discovered that they do not like direct sunlight.
Plus the little animals like the flavor too so they got destroyed fairly
early.

Next year I'll branch out a bit. In the interim I've got a Spider plant
that's absolutely huge and a Chinese ornamental that I brought back from
the brink. Sadly I couldn't save the other one.

Here's the garden:
