Rain, Rain Go Away!

The garden has been plowed and disced now we need to get the clods out so we can start planting. I was going to do that today but it rained last night and some this morning.

I am eager to get some things in the ground. I am completely out of a lot of my home grown things. :(     I am also missing having fresh food to just pick and eat. We did not do a garden last year there just wasn't time.

So far I have put cucumbers, straight neck squash and zucchini out to start. They have not starting poking through yet. My lemon balm, parsley and comfrey are growing good. Oh! I almost forgot my chives they are blooming right now. Fresh chives on a baked potatoe just can't be beat.

I will have to get some pictures up soon of the gardens. The apple tree bloomed this year but they have to have a companion tree and it died so I will not have apples. :(    Time to look for another apple tree.  I would love to have a plum tree too. The kids love plum jelly.

I have not gotten into making bread again yet. I need to badly.

The last year I have not gotten near done here at the house that should have been done. The store consumed so much of my time that I let my family down. (that is a whole nother post) So I am trying to start back slow into all that I was doing before the store.
We still have the store but we are closer and I am home much more.

So stick around and I will be putting up post about my journey since I stopped writing the blog. God has taught me a lot and I want to share it.
