I had something better typed up and then my phone wigged out. I just wanted to share what my plants surprised me with today. I hit 2 cups! of raspberries, a handful of basil and dill. Tomorrow will possibly be a cucumber, zuchinni, some strawberries, and surely more raspberries. I'll be putting my new dehydrator to use soon by testing it with the raspberries and later to be used on wild blackberries still developing on my hillside. Last year, I havested gallon sized zippy bags of berries that I kept in my freezer and lost them in the ice storm from lack of power. I decided to try a more secure method of saving them by drying them out.

This just puts to mind that baby steps matter and to be easy on yourself. #MiniHarvest is still a harvest and every mistake is the dance of progress.

Something common I've noticed in myself is each year, I have little to no faith that I can actually do this gardening stuff. But I must be doing something right. Just look at that rose! I doubt myself right up until the bloom. And then when I see it, I'm like WOW. I helped do that. I stuck to it and it paid off. My roses are about 4 years old and I have yet to be disappointed. They give me hope in myself and prove my negative think wrong. For that, I am grateful.
