Hi Everyone
 Happy Tuesday
 ♥
{Love}
 to garden and grow food we can pick and eat for dinner
Last year we had a bumper crop of artichokes 
{My husbands favorite}
This years crop has already blessed us
 We also have tomatoes and strawberries
 in  bloom
 This morning the weather is glorious 
I am grateful the bunnies are still in the backyard eating the grass
 not in the front garden eating the new
 strawberry and tomato buds
 I did spot a little bunny 
 watching me this morning

 The tomatoes were planted from seed
so far they are doing well
 going from greenhouse to garden we have lost a few in the past
 but they seem hardy and
 there are  already several yellow buds
 There is nothing like a fresh picked juicy tomato from the garden for our summer salads
Artichokes are   so delicious
I never had an artichoke until I was dating my husband 
 it was so fun to share one with him on our dates 
 we still 
 {Love}
to share them with each other
 here is the recipe we use for our fresh cut artichokes
 Cover the artichokes with water and the ingredients below  bring to a boil lower heat and simmer covered for 45 minutes
 2 tablespoons Italian salad dressing
 a bay leaf 
juice from one lemon
so easy
and
delicious

 ♥
~Grateful~
It is going to be another summer filled
with delicious fresh food from the garden


romantic saying for today
"From the seed of this day let our love grow as the tree grows
  reaching down to build strong roots"
