Deck Garden and Updates

Hello! 

I had every intention of blogging every Tuesday in the summer. But you see...it is Friday, oh and a month late to boot. I may have overestimated how much time I would have this summer. Planning a wedding takes more time and energy than I gave it credit for. Forgive me dear reader, I am a tad bit stressed. I am sure you can relate and of course your forgive me, so lets move on, shall we? Good.

Deck Garden

My very modest deck garden is doing fantastic! If you compare the last blog post of Week Six, you will see the before and after progress that a month and a half can make. Patience my young padawan, patience. Steamboat takes its sweet time in growing plants. 

Take a look!
Squash Blossom 

Tomatoes

Peppers

Sugar Snap Peas
If you are new to gardening at high elevation, I highly suggest starting with sugar snap peas. They are low maintenance and taste oh so good!

Personal Note

Food

Many of you know that I love to cook. My mom will be the first to point out that I don't get that skill from her. I am kind of obsessed with this blog. I made this salad last night with these cashews. Oh my sweet goodness! As my sister would say, I am an evangelist for this blog.  It is making my mouth water just thinking about it. Seriously, try it. 

Ok...moving on. 

Friends

Last night we spent the evening with some good friends to help celebrate their one year wedding anniversary. My parents always say "Celebrate the Celebrations" I have taken this to heart. It is important to stop and enjoy ALL accomplishments and successes. We drank wine, ate special cheese and reminisced over a year of marriage. Kyle and I soaked up any marriage advice they had to say, to store it away for a rainy day. We stopped for a night and ignored the "busy" around us. It was lovely. 

Okay dear friends, My new goal is to blog every month, at least until after the wedding.
