Last time I wrote, spring was just appearing. Now summer is
certainly here! There is just so much to love about summer. The world turns
luscious green; people are out and having a great time; our neighborhood
Farmers’ Market picks up again!
After a morning run today, Ryan joined me for my weekly
visit to the Farmer’s Market. Throughout the winter, I still got to enjoy
honey, baked goods, essential oil creations, and jams, and I have been blessed
by friendship with these vendors. The hospital nearby welcomes them all
indoors. Today was the first day that all the summer vendors joined the mix and
they all stayed outside to enjoy the beautiful weather. Our market is very
small, but it has a great variety of products. I’m especially glad that the
“Rooftop Gardeners” have returned, with all of their organic and modestly
priced herbs and lettuces.

In addition to this lovely bunch of kale, lettuce, and
strawberries, we also came home with some jalapeño jelly and my favorite bread
in the world, “Farmer’s Wheat Bread” by Breadsmith.
My porch garden is starting to come up! Watching this grow
has been so much fun. We have spinach, onions, three tomato plants, oregano,
basil, and cilantro, all snuggled onto our little porches.
A few weeks ago, we got a new camera! I’ve wanted this
camera for about three years now. I’m so thrilled we finally found one at a
good price! We’ve had a lot of fun taking pictures and learning how to use this
incredible machine. Here are some samples.

I hope all of our friends are having a great start to their
summer!
With love and blessings,
