  2. Your garden seems to really be paying off! potatoes, fresh out of the ground, really do taste best!

    She's a doll, I hope she doesn't wear out that little costume before it really fits! :-)

  3. the first time I grew a garden I planted whole seed packets... and... every single seed grew! Beyond my wildest dreams and then some! I had food to feed all the neighbours and finally after all the canning we all did and eating we did...I was still trying to get passersby to take some bags of cucumber, tomatoes and corn.... it was crazy.

    The lady across the back fence knew how to make a special little half underground mounded dugout for saving some of the veggies well into winter. ... we would be out there in deep snow digging into it for carrots... ....but, I definitely didn't ever plant a full packet of seeds again. ahahahhah

    your little angels did pretty good with the camera....

    sharron they do taste best out of the garden do fresh ..and yesterday our neighbour sang out while i was poking about in the garden and handed me some of his home grown potatos so that was nice of him ,oh Bumblevee that is so funny , some of my seeds never came up i may have planted them a bit to soon in the spring not only that we had a really wet cold start to our spring and summer :-(
