Fruits of our labor . . .




My Monday morning . . .  A garden is hard work, but the rewards . . . . wow, I am so grateful!    You honestly can't get any better or healthier than this!  This morning was tomatoe sauce day!  I have been flinging bags of tomatoes into the freezer , we were running out of freezer space.  This all actually started with the planting of our garlic last fall!  We grew EVERY element that is in this sauce . . . from the tomatoes, onions & red peppers to the garlic and oregano. I use red peppers in my sauce . . . as they give a depth of flavor and a richness that is amazing!   The house smells so wonderful as the sauce is cooking right now!  This evening?  Eggplant Parmesean..... YEP, we grew the eggplant too!  :-)

Have a happy day!
