Holy guacamole: We've grown a snow pea!

Do you remember that feeling when your first born said his/her first word? Or took those first steps? That feeling of pride so huge you felt like emotion was exploding out of your body? As if your child had invented language single-handedly. Or invented walking!

This is how I feel about my garden. I have truly grown a snow pea. Several as a matter of fact. My beans are now taller than I am, every plant I started has grown. I now have sunflowers started from seed, snow peas, green beans, blueberries and strawberries growing in my own yard!

I never thought it would happen. I'm astounded, but in a good way.

This is so exciting.

If you haven't started a garden, you must. Really. If I can do this, then you can too! Get thee to a nursery, quickly! Grab a trowel. Growing your own food is just too cool!!
