Helping shell peas to add to the lettuce & spinach from the garden.
Anytime I can supplement supper with something from the garden…it makes me happy, General Tso’s Chicken, rice and sauteed peas which were from the garden. Frozen strawberries in lemonade and shelled peas (which taste like candy)…and the kids like to eat them raw. Add a little spinach and lettuce and we’ll call it supper!

Eggs

July 23, 2019 / / 0 Comments

I dropped a dozen eggs off with a friend who has a five-year-old son. She said,  “Joshua was impressed with the different colors of the eggs 😁”.  As I was putting eggs away this morning, I paused and admired them too.

A variety of chickens, makes a variety of eggs.
