Blanching green beans

Yes, we picked our first batch of beans and I just finished blanching them.  I also picked some small tomatoes today and we have been enjoying zucchini and  banana peppers.  My potatoes are growing - I "planted" them in big black nursery pots and am using straw to cover them rather than dirt.  As the plants grow taller, I add more straw. 

We did have some wind damage - my tomatoes were blown all over and I had to tie them up.  Our peas were pretty much destroyed, so I am going to replant them - I figure that we might have enough time to harvest a few in September if I get them planted now.
