I believe it is now safe to call myself a "green thumb". This, my friends, is my very own garden. After 2 years of utter failure when it comes to gardening, my sweet friend Brenda taught me everything she knew. And now, I have a thriving, vibrant, beautiful vegetable garden. It's funny, really... I don't need any bells and whistles, no fences or fancy dirt... Brenda showed me that simplicity is the best policy when it comes to growing your own food. And I can't wait to eat it up!
It has been a great learning experience for me, and I am thrilled to have the knowledge to pass on to my kiddos. The girls love to see how much bigger the garden grows seemingly overnight (and after a good rain). It didn't take long for our squash and cauliflower to begin sprouting up... Next will come our carrots, cabbage, tomatoes, peppers, broccoli, sweet potatoes, and my mouth-watering favorite... Beans and corn! Mmmm... I can taste them now :)!
