HAPPY GARDENING

Garden Girl
Our garden is less like a garden and more like a desert. So its quite an accomplishment to get anything out of it - no matter how puny. A few real farmers have told me that if we plant in a particular area year after year the better the crop will be. So hopefully next year will be better and so on and so on. But for now, Madeline had a great time picking some of our very own carrots, tomatoes, butternut squash and lemon cucumbers. The lemon Cucumbers are my favorite. They taste a little sweeter they other varieties and look great in a big green salad.

How fun! love the cucumbers, carrots,
heirloom tomatoes even! I'm going to try to buy some lemon cukes at the Farmer's Market and try them. Maddie looks so proud and cute.
She is so surprised to find(food from our house) in the dirt outside. :)
Our kids loved gardening when they were little and it's true.....things will get better and bigger from year to year. Looks like Madeline is such a well rounded little darling! What great memories! What great parents she has.
Thank you Debi. Thats very sweet. I wish we could get everyone together again - kids grow up so fast.
That is hilarious she's surprised to find food from the house in the dirt outside, hahaha.
What fun. And love Mad's pink outfits, so adorable. :)
PS The word verification word for this comment is "happe." It's happe outside! :)
Puny, nothing! I am totally jealous!
I am jealous of your garden too. One of my favorite foods ever is garden fresh tomatoes. You can pick them green too and make fried green tomatoes. Yum!
