Gardening today

I was out in the vegetable garden today.



I know you arrived here all prepared to learn more about the blogging experience.



Perhaps you were looking forward to the latest tips on search engine optimization.



Instead, I am telling you about pulling weeds.



Gardening isn't all about weeds, but instead about creating life. From the ground, mixed with a bit of rain, a few seeds turn into food for the table.



The tomatoes are forming some small fruit and they won't be long until they arrive on the table. Yes, the tomato is a fruit, and not a vegetable.



There will soon be cucumbers to slice, and potatoes to dig, as well. Even the pepper plants are getting into production mode. In our short and intense Canadian Prairie summer, the garden grows fast and furious.



Vegetables are no sooner planted, it seems, and they are almost ready for the table.



Today, I cut a head of fresh broccoli, and pulled some green onions for the dinner plate.



Many people turn up their noses at some vegetables, and considering the appearance of some of the canned abominations, I'm not surprised in the least. If you grew the veggie with your own hands, however, you will definitely enjoy them more.



Is there anything better than a carrot right out of the ground; or fresh from the garden salad ingredients?



Fresh produce from the home garden simply tastes better.



It tastes of love.
