A day's bounty


I cannot begin to say how satifying it is to be able to prepare a meal almost exclusively from your backyard! We just started our garden last year and it is really becoming more productive this year.....with more additions planned for next year. Hopefully in time, we will be able to grow and preserve/freeze all of our produce and learn to eat more 'in season'. Now that will be the biggest challenge of all in our 'supermarket mentality'!

First Fruits


Today we enjoyed picking the first fruits of our tomatoes...All the colors and shapes, different textures and flavors....they are all truly beautiful. I know why God placed Adam and Eve in a garden. Every little fruit bears witness to the Mighty Creator. Every good and perfect gift truly does come from Him and all of creation testifies of his love for us and the common grace that we all share. There are many spiritual lessons to be gleaned from working in a garden. Anyone care to share their special "Ah Ha" moments?...

There is something to say about organic pest control. He is my knight in shining armor and I feel so much safer knowing he's protecting the fort.
