Look!

first harvest
Do you see those potatoes! Who knew? My own potatoes make me so proud. Like they are my children and have accomplished something amazing. They were so good for dinner. JJ was sad that I had gone and dug them up without him. When I had scrubbed the dirt off them they were the color of lavender. And the taste was divine. Straight from the dirt. No one but me had ever handled them.

They felt like a gift.

    No. It is an Armenian cucumber, I think. Some kind of European cucumber anyway. They are really good and you don’t have to peal them. Yum. I want to see pictures of your garden.
