Master Gardener

I stand in awe of my mother's garden. It's designed with perfection, spaced just right, and growing enough food to feed a small army. Did I know about the required gardening headgear if it's raining? No. Now I know the Walmart bag makes all the difference.

And rule number two, don't let the kids inside the fence. Keep them on the outside, picking peas so delicious Sawyer ate far more than his share.

I remember many a summer day when before we could go play, you had to weed a row in the garden. You mom has always had a great garden.

I love the garden and picture of Sawyer!! We didn't know you could eat the peas raw, we stir-fried them first!
