Watering & Pruning Day

It’s so awesome and Susie-homemakerish (hope that phrase doesn’t offend anyone) to be able to step outside on my deck with my scissors and colander, peruse the status of my mini-garden, and pluck what we want to utilize for lunch or dinner menu.

 Today is watering and pruning day for my plants & veggies.  I can’t believe the size of my green pepper now which is a California Wonder Sweet, AND I also have another small sweet pepper coming.  Steve’s Jalapeño Hot ones are appearing on the scene.  So exciting!  I just clipped oregano, chives, lemon, lime and regular basil, chocolate mint (from my new farmer’s market plant) and lettuce to take with us in baggies for the weekend.

  Anyone know of a good Mojito recipe?

    Hi, Teresa! Mom gave me your blog address a while back, and I check in from time to time. If you are seriously looking to make a good Mojito, pick up some of Rose’s Mojito mix. Living in Florida, my mother-in-law enjoys them too. She said when Tom made her a mojito with Rose’s mix, it was the best she’d ever had.

    I’m going to check out the internet cafe devotional site. Congratulations on the news of your publication. E-mail me sometime. I’d love to give you a link to our family site where we keep everyone up to date on what’s happening in the Holwerda house (never a dull moment these days!)

      Hi Robin,

      I was just thinking of you this week and wished your mom could participate and see my blog & Facebook posts. So glad you found me! I am serious about making a good Mojito & will look for “Rose’s.” Thanks for the tip! Do you maintain the family Holwerda site? I’d love the link. You are right–there’s never a dull moment in most homes today. So good to hear from you! One of my articles will also be appearing in “War Cry” – The Salvation Army publication in November. I’ll let folks know when that gets published too. Teresa 🙂
