Garden

I can now see why everyone goes ga-ga over having a garden.

I stopped at my brother's house yesterday, and my sister-in-law told me to pick some fresh tomatoes, beans, carrots and green onion from their garden. She also picked me some fresh rosemary, basil and pesto. When I got home I cut up some tomatoes, green pepper (store bought), onion and some of the herbs and stirred it all together with a little olive oil. Oh my gosh! The salsa-like concoction was so much fresher and tastier than anything I would buy in a store.

This week I'm going to grill up some pork and use some of the herbs. I can hardly wait to see how it tastes. Yum!

If I have one goal for next summer, it is to build my own garden, even just a small one. I'd like some tomatoes, onion, carrots and beans. Maybe some peppers. That's all I need.
