Garden Girls

So, y'all have inspired me.  Kate and I would like to go ahead and kill some, uh, I mean plant some plants.  I would love some veggies, cucumber, okra, squash, tomatoes, maybe some basil...  Problem is that in addition to killing small plants, I seem to have managed to kill the baby trees in our back yard too.  ::sigh::  All this to say, we have zero shade.  

What can we plant now that loves full sun and is fairly forgiving?  I think we'll be ok with watering it since Kate begs to go in the backyard every day, but let's be real here.  I've managed to kill cacti in the past.

    I think tomatoes and basil are both fine, beyond that I dunno.  Caprese anyone?

    Do you have a privacy fence around your yard?  I was watching to see where the sun was hitting yesterday and there's a spot along my fence that at least blocks the harshest afternoon sun, that's where I'm putting my beds down.  It's better than nothing at least.   You could also get/build a trellis.
