Good Morning and Welcome to Wednesday the 28th day of August 2013.
It is a great day. The southern sky from my office window is glowing in purples and pinks with a pale blue background as the reflection from the sunrise passes over.
I just want to say that it is positively and most definitely true that when you give something it comes back to you abundantly.
My brother gave me a crazy amount of things from his garden. I had one of the crisper compartments in my fridge full of cucumbers.
As I don’t really eat a lot of pickles anymore I have been eating them daily and gave some to my daughter and husband.
But still I had a crisper full of cucumbers.
So one of my neighbour does the juicing and is also a vegetarian so I asked her and she accepted.
So tonight I took over a bag of them.
Then another one of my friends called to say that her sister had given her an abundance of vegetables from her garden and also some crabapples.
So I gratefully accepted them.
When she brought them over I had no idea how much it would be …
A huge bag full of potatoes, yellow beans, carrots, squash and crabapples.
Oh my goodness I hit the lottery …. how wonderful and thoughtful.
So I gave one modestly sized bag and received a huge bag in return.
Anyway, always good to give and then again it is always a pleasure to receive.
Special Hello to: all those gardeners out there …. thank you for the produce.
P.S. thank you to my brother for starting all this and for the absolutely yummy vegetables (potatoes, onions, cucumbers, squash, peas and dill).
By the way my brother’s peas were about four to five inches long. They were huge.
Always, Carol and Alvin (Alvin was pretty excited about the vegetables, too) 🙂
