Sunday Afternoon

I like to paint. I haven't painted in a long time. It is hard to find the time. Last Sunday David was sick so we stayed home from church. It was such a relaxing day. And I even found some time to do a little painting in the afternoon.



Cinderella Pumpkin

I love growing pumpkins in all different shapes, sizes and colors. Here is one I grew this year that I think is just beautiful.

Sweet Melon

A melon from our garden. I can actually grow melons in our cool spot but they are late and might not ripen. So you won't be seeing any of these at the market, because I just grow a few for fun. This is a French Charentais melon and was very sweet and delicious.

Garden Fresh Tomato Sauce

Yum...



Dried Tomatoes

If I have extra tomatoes to use up I like to dry them. I just slice them up thick and lay them on the dehydrator trays and dry overnight or until they seem done. They are wonderful on pizza, or tossed with pasta, or blended into a creamy salad dressing.

Sunny Sunflowers

I love sunflowers! They are so cheerful and summery. This year I have to rows of them one along the potato patch and one below the squash patch.
