Church Garden and Cake!

There's been a small church garden this summer, and we've been helping out a bit.  It's on a farm just around the corner from us, so we helped with the planting, and 2 or 3 times have been over to help weed and pick the crops, which are sold at the church on Sundays.

The garden is actually growing very well.  We've certainly had enough rain!  So there are beans, a few beets and carrots, and lettuce all picked and ready for sale tomorrow.

And lo and behold there was cake and ice cream afterwards (a good incentive to go over and help I thought)!  Only 10 people were there, so there was lots for everyone.  And the excuse for the cake was our own anniversary - 45 years we've survived!  Biggest anniversary party we've ever had.  And a beautiful summer evening to boot.
