Those who know me say that having a vegetable garden is just in my blood. And I’m likely to agree with them.
I guess it’s just something deep inside me that feels the strong drive to nurture the earth and through grit and gentle determination coax from it nourishment for both my body and my soul.
But things came up this year and with a sigh I conceded that a vegetable garden was just not meant to be for the first time in… well maybe EVER.
Although I had begun garden preparations months ago, “Life” stepped in and there was simply no way I could tackle the now-overgrown beds and plant. I was diagnosed with breast cancer.
Due to surgeries & healing I had to face my limitations this year – it was just too much. Maybe next year…
Then Love happened.
