sketches of my day May 2008 - Nov 2010
The morning here was nice. I measure it by the peacefulness of the season and my home and the bounty of my garden. I have decided beyond a doubt, pole beans are far superior to bush beans. I have both this year and I am certain, the pole beans are much better, not to mention easier to pick. I felt I could go on and on this morning turning a white bucket green with string beans. I do say string beans because there is a string to pull while snapping. I was up close to the garden this morning and happily saw two beautiful little lady bugs busy keeping my garden clean and unfortunately I could smell the presence or absence of a stick bug or two. I have faith, however, in my well balanced organic garden that I will ultimately end up with most of the produce. I was able to pick two large zucchinis and three yellow squashes and a small bucket of cucumbers. The older I get, the more I appreciate going to the garden and gathering food for the table, fresh food grown with only sunshine and water. On the way back from the garden, I was greeted by my first morning glory. Every morning of my life is not so delightful, but this morning, the stars were all lined up in my universe and I am grateful.
