The Very Best Gift

Gifts, they are always a treat to receive, and simple, heart felt gifts are best. I love gifts from the garden. This weekend I was fortunate enough to receive this beautiful gift from my friend. A box filled with love, from her home to ours. A few French Strawberry Plants, some of her gorgeous Aqua Blue Araucana Eggs, and two sweet smelling roses "just bloomed" from her garden. Do you have a generous friend like this? If so, you are blessed. Thank you, sweet friend. Every gift you give is a treat, but this one, divine!

wow, then I’m doubly blessed. They have been planted, Andrea, now only hoping our new puppy won’t discover them as a “snack”! xo

They sell these in San Diego for $6 a plant, so I would say this is a very generous gift! I am sure they will find the right place in your garden, Lidy!
