'Toes in the Dirt!

We interup this sewing season to make room for GARDENING!  After what feels like the longest winter on the planet (it wasn't - it just felt that way!) it seems that not only has spring arrived just a little early but it has that sense of being here to stay.

So on that glorious note I took a bit of a risk and tilled up my garden plot to make a place for tomatos. Four Celebrity plants and four Better Boy.  If all goes well I should have glorious tomatos just a hair before the summer season officially hits on June 20th. 

Of all the things I love - and there are many, I am crazy for the glorious abundance that defines summer.  Fresh vegetables, sweet and juicey fruit, tall glasses of frosty home made lemonade, iced tea with mint from the garden. On and on the list goes.

Planting tomatos today is my welcome statement - welcome glorious, tender, hopefilled spring that always, always to the eternal praise of God, melts into my favorite season - summer!
