Today was a nice, hot day to work in the garden and yard. Despite the heat and drought, our vegetables have continued to produce pretty well, even some that we've never grown until this year. We're enjoying good corn, tomatoes, and cucumbers, and today picked most of our peas. We'd planted purple hull, crowder, lady cream, and zipper peas. They've all surprised us with how easy they were to grow, but the zippers are the prettiest of all we've harvested. We can't wait to eat some. Monday night is going to be fresh veggie night here at the Vines' cafe!
Growing up, I often said "I wished I had a corner," meaning I wanted a little hideaway where I could get alone and just BE. It got to be kind of a joke in the family, but they understood what I meant - a spot just for me; to read, journal, garden, enjoy music, meditate on life, or pray. The "corner" I longed for wasn't even an actual place, but more, the opportunity to do those things I love. So, welcome and see what is going on in our family's corner!
