Hi Reader,
I never feel like it's officially spring until the rhubarb is going strong. Some people love rhubarb and some people hate it. I used to be one of the haters, until I actually learned to mix some sweetness in with it! Now, looking back, it's hard to believe that not everyone knows that.
If you have rhubarb available to you, I have a perfect recipe for you to try. And while we are speaking, I'm actually in the middle of testing new rhubarb recipes out!
There is nothing crazy about this recipe and it's actually a really old recipe. One found in one of my grandma's old church recipe books, except I added a bit more sugar. So, if you like your rhubarb things more tart, you can lower the sugar amount.
Now, that you have your belly full and the warm weather is staying put, do you have your warm vegetables in the garden yet? I'm not even close to done! We have been so busy here!
One of my favorite vegetables to plant is zucchini. And for one reason. Zucchini bread.

Enjoy this weekend and take some time to play in the dirt and enjoy the sunshine.

Hi Reader, I hope you've been getting outside as much as I have. The weather has been amazing here and so tons of gardening has been getting done. It's not complete yet as I still had a bunch of weeds and grass I had to get rid of from last year that I neglected. By late next week though, there should be a YouTube video out of me getting the garden planted. This week, I did get another row of carrots planted. Have you been succession planting any carrots? They are one of my favorite crops for...
Hi Reader, Have you cleaned out your garden yet? I started cleaning mine out this week. Between the toddlers and the newborn, it took multiple days, and it's still not like I would like it. But that's okay! Someday, I will have the beautiful, glorious looking garden. Until my kids are grown up though, it's going to be one big hot mess that is effective without being too pretty. So, while I got the trash and junk out, there are now toy bulldozers and a bunch of kitchen spoons in my garden. And...
