Oh, How the Garden Grows…

~

I love the growing, blooming, and blossoming parts of summer. I love that in May I can plant loads of seeds, and spend the next 4 months cultivating, nurturing, and growing the biggest bad-ass fruits and vegetables around! I love that I can lose myself for what seems like hours pulling weeds, staking plants up, and pruning. I love even more that I can then create recipes to that use these wonderful, organically grown foods, to share with you!

It’s not easy venture having a ginormous garden every year. This looks to be my last garden at our current residence, and honestly, I think that’s the ONLY part of this house I’ll truly miss!!! Ok, ok…the garden AND the view…. I know I’ll have lots of room to garden at the Compound, too, but still. I’m extremely proud of the garden this year, especially considering e v e r y t h i n g that has been going on. And everything that’s still coming this summer.

I’ve got big plans for gardens at the Compound, some that may include winter gardening. Oh, what? I’m rambling? And you’re wondering about the cook book, aren’t you? *Insert devious smile here* It’s getting SO close! In fact, right this moment, that’s what I SHOULD be working on!! HA!! I’m currently editing recipes, pulling pics and nutrition labels into the layouts. While this part isn’t terribly difficult, it’s EXTREMELY time consuming. It’s very close to ISBN time, and making this gluten free cook book official!!

Please spread the word about this cook book with your friends, family, whoever! Still going ahead with a certain amount of proceeds from this book benefitting the Scleroderma Foundation, as well! Will know how much once all the costs are determined for publishing and what not. Oh, the details! PLEASE REMEMBER to LIKE, COMMENT, FOLLOW, SHARE, RETWEET, REBLOG, BRAG ON, and even STALK US on Facebook! Twitter! Pinterest! EVERYWHERE!!!

PS. The cook book is called OH, Forks!! A Little Bit of Everything and All That’s Gluten Free!!
