Gardening 201

Yes, we are still gardening.

Thanks for asking. I am finally finding a second to post a few pictures. Year 2 and going strong. And no, we still have no plans to move to the country. Yet.


6 down, 2,589 to go.


Uncle Tom and Gabe like "harvesting" the strawberries best. Funny, I have yet to taste one. ;)



Lettuce that isn't sprayed down with chlorine. There's a novel idea.



Non-GMO corn. I know, right. We're craaaaazy.



Maddie couldn't wait any longer for carrots.



My first roma tomato.



Back in the 'burbs. Cucumbers -- Yum!

Tornado?

....or just a crazy idea that Mom went along with?

(they slept in the tub all night and I managed to catch this photo in the a.m.)

10TV....Got Any Ad Space?



The kids were creating commercials, specifically targeting young children, enticing buyers to purchase their handmade smoothies. I managed to catch "the boy's version" on video.


As a side note: be aware that if you purchase just one "cartoon character" clothing item for your children (ugggg!), they will find a way to weave it into their ensemble every. other. day.

Lincoln's Birthday Celebration

Mom, did you make this cake with freshly milled flour and no refined sugar?


....because I love it!
(if only I had snapped a picture of the tray as the girls swooped him up to bathtime. It was licked clean!)


Watch closely as he gives Ron a stern warning and then gets angry as he sees a sibling hand moving in to his territory!
