Grandma's Green Thumb

With all this farm life, grandma's thumb is finally turning green. For the first time after 45 years in Florida she was able to get an orchid to bloom a second time. This is the one Carrie gave us on her visit a year ago.
Here is this morning's harvest of squash, cucumbers and tomatoes. Can you guess what we are having for breakfast?
That's right, the Powell traditional squash and eggs with a touch of tomatoes.

  1. That lady has always had a green thumb! Everything she touches blooms and grows. They must have been faulty orchids in the past. Carrie would only provide healthy, long lived ones. She's a green thumb too.

  3. Very impressive all around. I agree with Kim. Mom has always had a way with plants. I thought I shared it, but she must have been secretely nurturing any garden I claimed as a kid.
