Gardening .....

Yay!  My raspberries and strawberries are ready!  I love the process of planning, tilling, planting, watering, weeding, and harvesting my garden.  This year I planted corn, tomatoes, peppers, peas, sunflowers and have a strawberry and raspberry patch.  I often plant things just because I love the way they look, i.e. peppers.  I love the colors and sharing them with friends--don't love the taste so much.

I also love flower gardening, it's amazing to see the creativity of our Creator.  There are so many colors, shapes, scents and varieties.  I've found myself returning to "old-fashioned" ones in the past few years.  I've planted a daisy garden, columbine, and bleeding hearts.  Daisies simply make me happy to see--it's like a garden of smiley faces.
