We're going shopping for all the fixins'. my mom and dad used to make this and we saw this sweet little southern lady making a similar dish last night. That was our remembrance moment. Four pounds of tomatoes picked today. We're going back in tomorrow to get the yellow tomatoes. And, our strawberries have had a battle to fight. Local varmint. I'm ready to sit out there w/ my pea shooter and introduce him to the afterlife. But, while out there, Fred sees that we have wild basil growing in the strawberries too. It's just popping up everywhere!

Megan, here's my sad raised gardens. There is no bermuda growing from the ground. Only coming up in these three raised beds. The other five that were built and filled with the same soil at the same time are producing maximum yields (remember our tomato hauls?) with not a blade of bermuda grass. It's like we purposefully planted it.

All of you!! Reading through comments and posts this morning... seeing how y'all are helping, celebrating, and engaging with eachother, makes me happier than you know!! I built this place with that very intention in mind. A calm, uplifting, encouraging environment, and you guys are doing just that! THANK YOU!! 💚😭🎉

My petunias died but the ice plant is already blooming. We are getting ready to leave for a week's vacation, but when we get home, hubby promised to take me to get a couple of fruit trees and more flowers for this little corner of my garden. I'm wanting to plant sunflowers too, but I think I might have missed my window of opportunity this year. But, my ice plant is blooming!!!! Yeah!!!!!
