We always do a walk-about
the church property. Our
son-in-law pastors a small
Baptist Church in Cooperstown.
The parsonage is next door
to the church and the grounds are
covered in lovely green grass
year round.
We saw the remains of the
vegetable garden that had produced
at high capacity all summer long.
One single night of below freezing temps had
left skeletons of tomatoes and brown
leather like stems draped on trellises. The
kale was the only living thing
left in the garden,
thriving and promising good
healthy greens to accompany
the black eyed peas and cornbread
winter meals. Our daughter
mentioned "kale chips" as an
interesting healthy snack idea.
Bordering a section of the
property was an old wooden
fence somewhat hidden by vines
covered with bright orange
and yellow berries. We
reached up high to gather
some of the nicest stems of
the "Bittersweet."
Have a blessed
Lord's day, everyone. Dee Dee
