Tis a gift

This is Lydia's version of 'Tis a gift to be simple, 'tis a gift to be free.

Zeelove

Lydia shares my love for zucchinis, although we express our love in different ways. I eat the summer squash (green kind only) with relish. I could happily eat them every day this month as long as they are not prepared in a manner which leaves them mushy. Lydia, on the other hand, refuses to eat the zukes. She does enjoy cutting them up into many tiny pieces. She also likes to lug the big ones around and give them baths in the bathroom sink.

Dinner from the garden

When Pablo has meetings after work once or twice a month, the girls and I eat very simply. This is super easy with harvest season upon us. Our garden is more and more productive every year we live here and work out plot of land. When the girls help harvest, all the vegetables are more appealing.
We've also been eating our potatoes which are super yummy with a pat of salted butter melted over them.
