What a wonderful late-spring summerish day! The garden is producing, the humming birds are arguing, the rainfall is adequate for this time of year, and life is beautiful. I am doing so much better these days. My Family, friends and neighbors seem to be doing ok. What's not to be thrilled about?
Well, I'm NOT estatic about gas prices going up on a daily basis. It is now nearing $4.00 per gallon. I need to relearn how to ride my 'ol bicycle. Food prices have jumped the proverbial gun, also. Whenever we go to the grocery stores, the items we purchase on a regular basis are always a few cents more each. Every trip amounts to a $2.00 or a $3.00 increase. That's a real downer. But, there's no getting around any of it. Life goes on and on and on........................!
I'm truly thankful for Hubby's garden! We can eat fresh veggies all summer long, and we'll put some away to help out with our meals during the fall and winter months.
I really enjoy eating squash, okra, green beans, tomatoes, etc., right from the soil. Our veggies are organically grown. No pesticides, fertilizers, etc. Of course, the insects and the animals get their share of the garden. So we have to plant enough for all of them. They have to eat, too!
The squirrels, rabbits, deer, field mice, ants, bugs, (all sorts), get their portion of our garden. They are entitled because they are all part of the natural order of things. Just leave some for us, please! Thanks! Life is wonderful!
