Unfortunately we don't have a balcony either but maybe we could grow fresh herbs at the window, and I love the idea of filling our home with flowers to remind us of a garden in the meantime :) What a wonderful idea.

Rashes are like weeds! Are you sure you didn't mean radishes? :-) HLFM~ WOW! I have not had this happen before with tomatoes! It will be fun to see what comes of the plants. I have thinned them some. I think they are cherry tomatoes! :-) Ed, you make me laugh! Rashes are like weeds!

It is an amazing thing! We had a bulldozer come and tear out our huge dead tree and our beautiful garden of sunflowers(that couldn't be rescued by me) there was nothing left not even one green twig. Everything was gone. So I thought....just the other day I saw tiny little sunflowers peck through all the rocks. It makes me smile. And of course I start thinking how true it is spiritually, that in the surface of things, somethings may seem dead, hopeless, ruined, or over! But God..has a work under the surface, growing, and multiplying that we never knew about. I am so learning more and more that God is always working for good to those who love him! yes!!

My oldest son chose mint and this year that one little plant has over taken and intertwined with the strawberries. I am not much of a gardener but I am amazed at how not only the mint but the strawberries have spread 10 fold....... it is a wonderful picture of how our Lord brings so much fruit from our little seeds of faith.
