We went to the Biltmore House on Sunday to see the sunflowers. They were spectacular!!! My favorites one is the one Worth is holding up. Crazy.





Look at this monster!





























My own sunflower from our garden. The whole back row is sunflowers and they are beautiful!

Isle of Palms

We just got back from an amazing trip to the Isle of Palms with Worth's family. It was such a wonderful time. Worth and I had date night one evening in Charleston and went to one of my favorite restaurants and got one of my favorite meals! It was perfect. Here are a slew of photos to show you what a wonderful time we had. Thank you so much Harriet and Wesley!

We watched as a "Turtle Team" inventoried a sea turtle nest. They thought that there might have been some sea turtles in there that they were going to help to the ocean. Thankfully none needed helping and they made all on their own the night before. It was still fun to see the hatched eggs and sadly some eggs that did not hatch.

Garden Variety

We are moments away from a full on garden explosion. I am not even sure what we are going to do when our 17 tomato plants all start producing at the same time. This year everything is so healthy and the plants are enormous. This might be the best our soil has ever been. We use compost and horse manure. Can't beat that combination.
We have really been enjoying making omelets from our produce, they are especially wonderful when we have some of the eggs from Wesley and Harriet's chickens! Farm to table, or rather backyard to table. Maybe that will be our new movement...... hhhmm. I am telling you what, if any of you buy tomatoes once ours start producing I am going to be so mad at you. You better just come on over here and pick them yourself. We are going to have so many they will be coming out our ears.

I think it was good.

Worth working the fields.

I believe that BellaRose is a bit anxious for her carrots and ready to start eating them even though they are far from ready.

Hollings just eats anything she can get her hands on from outside the fence. She crushed Worth's dreams of being a cherry tomato farmer.

If you ever need recipes for ways to use up lots of produce don't hesitate to ask. We are happy to share.
