Veggie Tales

Isn't that lovely! This is the first blossom of the butternut squash growing in the garden. I should call it the accidental squash because we had thrown squash guts into the compost bin and found 10 little seedlings growing a week or so later. I planted all 10, but the dogs and cat relieved me of some of the seedlings; I was a wee bit mad about that because only three survived the pet attack. However, looking at the space those three take up in the garden, I'm glad their numbers are limited!

I'm not pleased with the past two months of 30-day Detour postings, so when June hits, I'm going to alternate with a poem and a photo each day--I think I should have time then.
