As summer comes to an end, I am enjoying the fruits (or veggies) of my labor! I can now say that I have successfully gardened. However much of a novice as I am, I planted, grew and ate from my own backyard! What an accomplishment for me considering I never had one inkling of an interest in gardening I must admit.
When Jason came to me last winter and said, "I want chickens and a garden", I thought he had gone off the deep end. I am a girl who enjoys the finer things in life and will gladly admit that I am high maintenence. I guess that he has finally worn me down. It has now been years since I have purchased a pair of designer jeans or had a pedicure. I am not sure if it has more to do with me changing as I get older, or the fact that I am BROKE not working:) Oh well, I will gladly accept my hippie status. Just don't think I am giving up Make-up Jason!!!
Cheers to my sunflowers...

You're so funny...and hate to break it to you but you can't claim hippy status quite, yet. However, you do grow a great garden and your chicks make pretty eggs....we are so thankful to be your neighbors and learn together how to make environmentally/family friendly decisions. I can't wait for some delicious apples from your trees, too!

Tishelle! You are such a farmer. It looks so great (and there is nothing wrong with being a little crunchy).
