Our garden isn't much this time of year,
so, I thought I'd share a picture my
son sent of a marina in San Diego.
It's so beautiful that it almost
looks like a watercolor painting.
And,
this year has started out with a couple
of family issues that will hopefully
be resolved with prayers and caring.
🙏
Although we've had some below freezing
days, the garden didn't take much of a hit
and it looks like things are starting to
look much better.
We harvested as much as we could
before the temperature dropped too much.
These are Yukon Gold and Russet potatoes.
Yes, they would have survived a freeze,
but we decided to eat them instead.
😊
The CEO dug them up and I put them in
several soups and side dishes.
They were delicious!
Cauliflower.
This also made it into salads
and soups.
One of 3 heads of broccoli that had the
same outcome.
It's so nice to be able to feed the
family from the crops we grow!
A few more of the harvested
veggies.
The peppers are not hot, so I made
salsa with some and used the others
in my soup and chicken dishes.
More tomatoes that the CEO
harvested before the freeze.
They ripened on the window sill.
Oregano and onion sprouts.
They survived the freeze and are
doing great.
These are the last of the "green"
tomatoes that were picked early.
The striping is because of the heirloom variety.
Very tasty!
Rosemary.
Bay Laurel.
Italian Thyme that is peeking out from
the old dead areas.
More Broccoli.
Flowers on the blueberry bushes!
Phalaenopsis orchids are still in bloom!
The started budding shortly before Christmas.
So beautiful!
Sedum.
Boy, this little guy is a survivor.
It can withstand extremes in temps
and still comes back with vigor.
The Gladiolas are sprouting!

I'm stealing this quote from my
sister's post this morning...
"I want to be like a sunflower,
so that even on the darkest days
I will stand tall and find
the sunlight."
You got this!
With God all things are possible
Matthew 19:26
