Todays Harvest

There is so much to be grateful for in spring when you live in the country. Bulbs that pop up as soon as the snow melts. Baby calves walking on wobbly legs in the nearby pastures. Canadian geese finding their way back to the ponds. And, just in the last few days, the trees, bushes and perennials have begun to leaf out. I even was surprised by the sight of sudden blooms on the phlox in our flower beds, All reasons to look forward to sunny days, farmers' markets and mornings spent in the garden. While this day's harvest appears small, it is a promise of the bushels of produce that our garden will bless us with in summer. Yes, maybe winter is finally over.
