Our garden has really exploded with green as of late! The first goody we got to harvest was some sugar snap peas. They've kept coming and they are so delicious. I blanched and froze a lot of them this week so that we will have them for stir-frys and pasta dishes this winter. Gia is a great helper at the garden (most of the time). We got this cute Hello Kitty watering can for her and she loves giving the plants a little extra drink. We are really loving our gardening experience, making not of things to do differently next year, and being so grateful to our friends who let us use their land, and of course to God who makes it all!
In the style of Today's Letters, one of my favorite blogs, and in an effort to document more of our summer shenanigans, here we go:
Dear Hubby, thank you for spending two evenings and an afternoon putting up posts and twine for our sugar snap peas. Sugar Snap Peas, I can't wait to harvest all three rows of you and eat some right off the vine. I'll drench the rest of you in ranch. :) Randy Travis, you are the best companion for stringing up snap peas and pulling redroot pigweed. Redroot Pigweed, you are as nasty as your name. Stay away from my carrots & okra... Or else! Sean Michael, thanks for adventuring through this thing called life. In the words of my friend Randy, I'm gonna love you forever and ever, forever and ever, amen.
