For our enjoyment, we discovered we have a well-matured
rhubarb patch in the back yard. And can I say, we enjoyed it!
Cade and
Brinly dipped the stalks in sugar and actually ate them raw.
Then we made this yummy pie. Oh, SO YUMMY! IT was divine...I would have to say it is now one of my top 5 favorite desserts. Fortunately, we had enough
rhubarb to make 3 of these throughout the spring and summer:). Bring it on next spring!
Apple blossoms in our orchard. Aren't they pretty?
There is an abundance, actually an over abundance of lilac bushes (more like
monstrous out of control bushes) all over this property. When they bloom, they are gorgeous- as shown here...and actually edible, did you know?! We candied some and ate them. They smell amazing too. We enjoyed several
bouquets while they were blooming. The remainder of the year, they are just a huge mass of
stalky bushes. The kids can hid in them quite well...and the chickens:).
I was in LOVE with this tulip. Isn't it remarkable? Those jagged edges were just so unique. There were only a few, but I enjoyed them
immensely.
Our first harvest from our garden. Fresh spinach. Wonderful feeling of self-reliance, not to mention it's yummy fresh flavor.
