Under a Blanket of Blue….
Today, it was essential to put the 3rd planting of our brassicas in the ground. I woke up late and felt oh this is the beginning where will be the end? However when I was finally out the door ready for the day. I could feel in my soul somewhere that today, I would not be going to my weekly job. I was going to plant these brassicas so they could savor the noon rain. Thanks to my Dads help they are all now safe in the ground and beginning the next stage of growth!
Our row covers engineered by Rachel from some outlet fabric always remind me of Frank Sinatra's Under a Blanket of Blue.
Under a blanket of blue
Just you and i beneath the stars.
Wrapped in the arms of sweet romance
The night is ours.
Under a blanket of blue
Let me be thrilled by all your charms
Darling, i know my heart will dance
Within your arms.
A summer night's magic, enthralling me so.
The night would be tragic, if you weren't here to shareit my dear,
Covered with heaven above.
Let's dream a dream of love for two,
Wrapped in the arms of sweet romance,
Under a blanket of blue.
Last Light
sometimes we have those hard days that just seem to go on and on. The best part of them are the last lights of day. Dusk's last stand, then its over. complete Night surrounds us and finally we can hope for the Dawn of tomorrow and the newness it brings!
Morning with The Girls
We appreciate all the eggs we receive from our Happy Hens and I love see them go at the ground scratching and pecking around for some yummy bugs! Its just a beautiful thing.
Happy Hens are my friends! I love you!,
please be True!
Living The dream with Garlic!
This past week we harvested our Garlic. Some will be used in our shares for CSA members and the bigs cloves we will keep for our seed. Using it to grow next years heads. It was a rainy rainy day but we had fun playing in the mud!
