Gardening Tips
My hope is for all to receive sanctuary and encouragement, including hospitality venues and ideas, conversational meditations, and organic gardening tips. Topics will range from the deeply personal to the light and entertaining, but all with the purpose of uplifting you while encouraging you to think deeply.
Squash Patties
Growing up in Lebanon, every time we had stuffed squash and the tender insides were cored out, I looked forward to the next meal even more, because that meant we were having “yeggit koussa” (squash patties).
Grandma’s Companions, Marigolds
Is there any science behind “grandma’s” habit of planting marigolds next to squash and cucumbers in her vegetable patch?
Be a Hen
My chickens are hilarious! Nothing deters them from announcing to their backyard world their achievements, contentment, needs, and wants!
