Not quite what I had in mind

I planted two eggplants seedlings this year, and as they both put out a steady stream of lavender blossoms, I dreamed of a summer of caponata and baba ganouj and eggplant spaghetti.

Instead, I got this.
That's it. One eggplant that is, strangely enough, the size of an egg. Yum, that'll make about a teaspoon of baba.

Here's hoping there's an eggplant growth spurt before the first frost. Which will be in like, a week.
