Warning. This post is totally conceded.

Conceded because I'm dang proud of our garden this year. Why? Not because it's actually that glorious, but just because it's sort of glorious which is alright for being first timers at this. This is our second year doing a garden, and it is so wonderful to watch things grow. I could see this becoming a passion. If we had a little more acreage we would have some chickens running around, along with a beautiful pile of compost and a HUGE garden with tons of fruit trees surrounding our borders. But alas, we cultivate whatever garden we have room to grow, and as such ours is tiny, but lovely none the less. 
Here is some of our garden loot.

Although we could have easily just gone out and bought a bag of these, for pretty cheap and way less effort, these snap peas from Liv's square foot garden were so tasty and sweet.

I was also so happy with all of our beautiful lettuce this year. We did iceberg, spinach, dandelion greens, and romaine, and they all grew wonderfully. Happy are we. 

 

 

And I had to post this picture, because when a salad looks this colorful and beautiful I just like to photograph it. :) 

And lest you think we are too healthy these days, we have our indulgences.
Here is proof.

Top Pot donut is all over his face.  Why he is not perfectly gleeful at that moment is beyond me.
