Garden Bounty

Well I am so excited, My garden has really taken off this year. After composting all winter, adding some horse manure earlier this season, rototilling it all up.. I am actually getting vegetables that are worthy of eating!! WOOHOO.. We have managed to get 2 colanders full of green beans, and some beautiful Italian eggplants and yummy zucchinis. I've already made zucchini bread!! Yummy, using my canned applesauce. :)

There is something so inspiring about using what you have worked hard to can yourself!!!







I hope to someday have alot of land to work, until then I will make the most out of my suburban homestead!! :)

Proverbs 12:11
Those who work their land will have abundant food, but those who chase fantasies have no sense.

Hubby was in an accident....

Proverbs 31 11 Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. 12 She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life. The blaring ring of the phone woke me on Tuesday morning... 7:15am... I knew as soon as I looked at the clock, something was wrong. No one calls here that early.. I quickly peel a child out of my arms and trying to not wake her, before the phone does. She had a restless night. "hello" in a whisper.. as I was still in my bedroom. Walking out of my room, I hear my darling hubbys nervous voice, "I was in an accident" Me, "Are you ok"... Him, "yes" Me" do you need me to come?" Him, "no, I'll call you" He explained what happened. His company truck was pretty messed up, and the air bags went off. He said he had some airbag burn, felt ok, just stressed. Next call I got was from him in the police car, the officer was kind enough to drop him off at work. The convers...

To which I am ever so Thankful, I was able to hang 4 loads of laundry on the *new* clothesline hubby built for me. OK so back to dishes, I put away my winter dishes... I was given a *new* set of dishes from my mom.... How cute are they????? Love them!!!!!!!!! And then these are what I usually have out in spring.. so I added them to the cabinet as well. It's all washed and put away.. waiting for tonights supper of Italian Sausage and White Bean Soup! From My Bella Cucina to Yours!

A Day Away....

So the Mr. has been working extra side jobs for the past few months. And while we are Thankful to God for the extra income, we have been super busy with it all. So for the Mister's birthday we decided to spend a day away.   So last Friday, we had planned  on getting everything all ready and packed when we had an extended family emergency.  The Mr. had landed another side job that he was sure he would have done Friday night, but as circumstance would have it. It wasn't done until mid Saturday morning.  I'd say around 11am Saturday morning we finally were headed out to our favorite place to be. Lancaster County.  We arrived to the our camper, made sure the heat was working and did a quick set up. We can only stay one night b/c we have no access to water right now at the campground.  But that's OK, we only needed one night/day to spend as a family and get some good quality time in. :) We went for dinner, did a Wal-Mart run and the back to campe...
