Garden Pictures
So my new hobby for the summer has been gardening, or as i like to call it: farming. Theres just something about playing in the mud that is therapeutic...either that or maybe I've just reached middle age a little sooner than normal.
The garden grew a little bit over the weekend...we now have:
9 Tomato plants of various varieties (Goliath, Early Girl's, Husky Cherries, Parker's Whoppers)
4 Zucchini
4 Squash
4 Squash
15 Green beans
10 Sugar snap peas
10 Sweet peas
10 Okras

Making Donuts
Today (yes! I finally am posting the same day I took the pictures!!), the girls and I made donuts. Real cake donuts from scratch! It was very fun. I was impressed by how well it worked. We made the dough and had to let it chill in the frige for 2 hours - just in time for the girls' quiet times. Once they were well rested we rolled out the dough and started cutting. Praise the Lord for donut cutters! Once we cut them, I fried them, then we dipped 'em in cinnamon and sugar. YUMMY!! We even got donut holes out of the deal. WOO HOO!
The finished product!
They were very easy, Spence loved them, and the girls had fun playing in the flour! Me, I enjoyed the challenge of frying and actually succeeding. Wish you all can enjoy them too!
