If you look on line, there are many recipes. I assume people learned to cook some of the blossoms so that there would not be so many fruits to deal with...just a thought.<br />My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.

It hit me how sad and as a Mom how concerned you are for it flashes before you his youth which seems so recent. So I will turn to The Lord instead<br />Dear Heavenly Father<br />Thank you so much for being my Heavenly Father and being a Father to the fatherless, on this, my Dad's birthday, who died five days after his 90th birthday four years ago and I miss him on days like these. Where I've had biopsies, and feelings of abandonment and misunderstanding. By new doctors. <br />And now You show me a Mother who is pleading for success for this rare birth defect that shows up when her son has a beautiful bride and is young, with a future. This Lord, brings comfort as I pray for Chris. That you a Lord, knitted him together as Psalm 139 so preciously tells us. This time Lord will you knit him together and heal him whole and renewed in agility?? Keep his pain down. Let his therapy go well. Keep him free of ALL infections Lord. Comfort Chris's wife. And comfort his Mom and Dad that we enjoy who so faithfully gives us menus and decor and Scripture. She is your servant. Keep them in Your arms In Jesus' name AmenGwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00534791661258633900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-927889236153598968.post-23889476349078760582014-07-07T21:01:35.043-04:002014-07-07T21:01:35.043-04:00Sending prayers for you, Chris and the rest of the...Sending prayers for you, Chris and the rest of the family, that he flies thru the surgery and recovery.

The thought of from plot to plate in minutes, or a few short hours, really appeals to me, and the immense satisfaction garnered from planting a tiny seed, nurturing it, watching it grow, harvesting, then preparing it, and finally eating it gives a confidence to what is on your plate. I love courgettes {zucchini} as they are beautiful, structural plants for any vegetable garden, and the flowers make good subjects for photographs and eating! I have many recipes including chutney, and I will need them all for I have seven plants in the ground this summer! Waving from Across The Pond!
