Today was a good day. I was able to harvest...
a bowl full of snap peas
a large bowl of lettuce
a bowl full of strawberries
oh and I got 6 eggs from the chickens.
Tonight for dinner we had steamed sugar snap peas from the garden, I added chives picked from the pot on our deck to the mashed potatoes I made and for dessert we are having strawberry angel food cake with strawberries picked this afternoon.
I love being able to grow my own food. It feels good to be able to provide my family with healthy, delicious foods grown right in our own backyard.
Oh how I am mourning the garden I was going to have this year... alas
ReplyDeleteI went out and picked strawberries tonight too. I love eating from the garden! Sounds like yours is doing wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait!! Lucky you! We've been eating lettuce & rhubarb. I can't wait for peas. Fresh peas are sooooo yummy.
