Picking Vegetables or Rocks?
Today was a beautiful winter’s day. The temperature was a little above normal for this time of year.
We spent time out in the garden today with our granddaughter, Lily.
I spent time harvesting leaf lettuce, radishes, carrots and cauliflower for our dinner salad.
I used our bounty to make a delicious salad for dinner.
The only thing from the grocery store in our salad was the cucumbers, which aren’t in season until summer.
As I was picking the vegetables earlier today, Lily was busy picking something entirely different…
Rocks!
She absolutely loves to pick up rocks.
Thankfully, she doesn’t like to eat them 😉

hahaha, i love this fun post. Sometimes when they are younger they put everything they pick to their mouth, i guess Lily has outgrown that. I love the color of your fresh salad.
It was a warm day, wasn't it? I enjoyed it immensely 🙂
Beautiful pickings from your garden! 🙂
