Garden/Boswell Update

Starting to feel like summer around here.  We have been doing some fishing, Jeff took his float tube to fish on the side of the freeway and caught 1 bass.  He really loves the float tube.  Baseball is in full swing.  William is doing great.  Bit of a ball hog but he makes some really great plays and its hard to talk to him about his ball hogging.  And I go where my boys go.  Its a good life!

The garden is growing!!!  I am really excited about the bean stock.  We watered this morning and by this afternoon the bean plants have grown an inch.  Cant wait to see them climbing the stock. The rain gutter planter has several spinach and lettuce starts and the herbs are maintaining well.  The rain gutter is really great for the herbs since they do not need large root beds.  Glad we tried this.


We covered the garden with our grass clippings, Jeff read that it will help hold the moisture in and keep the weeds down.  We'll see how it grows.  


I received my 1st Clean Eating magazine this week and I have to tell you I LOVE it.  Big thanks to my Grain Girl friend Amy.  What is Clean Eating???  Here is their definition: The soul of clean eating is consuming food in it most natural state, or as close to it as possible.  It is not a diet; its a lifestyle approach to food and its preparation, leading to an improved life - one meal at a time.  Clean foods contain just one or two ingredients.  Any product with a long ingredient list is human-made and not considered clean.  Cant wait to try some of the meal ideas in here.


Thats todays update.  Hope all of you are well.




How great is this, our pole beans grew an inch in one day.


I feel like ther is room that is not being used.  I'm going to talk Jeff into more plants this week.


Check out our bell pepper.



Broccoli and Cauliflower are growing great.







Until Next Time....
So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.   Matthew 6:34
