JILLYBEAN'S FARM VOL. III

Here is the third volume of my farm magazine.  If you have been following me the past couple of years you will know I always wanted my yard to be in a magazine, but because I live out in the middle of now-where in the high dessert, and my yard is nothing fancy, my yard will never grace the pages of a reputable publication.

  So I decided to write my own , featuring the things I find beautiful and interesting in my yard at the Little Red House.  As always I will have a picture of me on the front cover, but I am a bit camera shy so the cover would look something like this.

call him





In this issue

                                                        I would take you for a stroll down
                           a secret path that leads you  around a corner and on to the herb garden

 

We'd walk through the herbs gathering bits of this and that to make

 a lovely herbal and flower tea

nasturtiumns would be gathered to add a dash of

color in our freshly harvested lettuce salad

 that we'd have

 along with tiny cucumber sandwiches

and dilly beans

sitting at a lace covered table

in a cove of trees

 

nasturtiums

 

 

The beauty of this red Geranium in a window flower box

would inspire us to set up an easel, and our paints

 

 

and paint a quick sketch to remind you of a beautiful day

spent in the garden among the flowers, bees, the scent of herbs,

and the company of good friends
