Hibiscus is one of my favorite flowers for its beautiful bold bloom and resilience in the heat and rain of summer. As a late summer bloomer it reminds us to take our time with confidence and courage igniting hope and unfathomable faith. May our soul's soil continue to cultivate gratitude through life's most difficult challenges with grit and grace. All things are possible...Stand boldly in that knowing.

What a nice surprise at the garden today. A beautiful blossom of the okra flower. The red okra is well on its way as well. Last year's growth was "medi-okra", to say the least. Grateful for the lesson of perseverance...simply "try again." Sometimes the lesson is the harvest.

As the winter garden slowly comes to an end, I am filled with gratitude to have nourished my family, as well as for the challenges and wonderful lessons learned throughout a most frigid season. The snow-kissed purple cabbage had a very sweet and tender taste with subtle earthy undertones. Although both are delicious, there was definitely a difference in taste between the fall/winter and spring/summer harvests. It was also fun to share the winter veggies with our furry friends. Join me in embracing it all!
