Ok, more like lean to the right but who doesn’t think of Bowie when looking at eggplant? Just look at this sophisticated bitch! Maxin’ in the warm California sun with it’s shapely magenta toned exterior.
I only have five different eggplant seed packets. My guess is this is Nadia from Renee’s Garden. Teardrop-shaped and purple black hue, that sounds about right.
This one is ready to harvest with 3 more on the way. Did I mention this is only one out of 9 eggplant seedlings in the garden? I forsee a trade in the future. I need lemons!
I still haven’t decided how to cook it; recipes welcomed. Make sure to properly stake your eggplant so it doesn’t tilt like the Tower of Pisa.
Oop bop- do do do do do do do do…
Wow, that’s some sexy eggplant!
Does David Bowie count as punk?
You got sun? We’ve barely had any for days.
I need lemons, too. Think it’s uncool to steal some from my neighbor’s unattended tree?
this is a tasty recipe– just take out the feta for a vegan salad.

I made this last night and added my 1 striped eggplant. It was really yummy. http://simplyrecipes.com/recipes/baby_bok_choy_with_cashews/
I’m enjoying a bumper crop of japanese eggplant. And thanks for the Bowie – can’t get much cooler than that.
I was wondering if you could put a link to your magic seaweed fertilizer that you had mentioned back on the other blog. Not sure where to buy it. Thanks!!

Hi Lisa,
The fertilizer I use is Sea Magic Organic Seaweed Growth Activator. I purchased it from Burpee. Here is the link: http://www.burpee.com/product/id/105147.do
