garden reds and greens

the only thing better than planting a garden, tending the garden, watching it grow, and eating the fruits of your labour is watching your dad do the planting, the weeding, and then still getting to enjoy the harvest...

lately it's been blissfully yummy as we've enjoyed the results of his toiling...don't worry, he really does enjoy it and is sure good at it...i'm not asking him to do this, honest!  sooo, spinach and strawberries are bountiful.  combined with grilled chicken, lots of toppings and a raspberry vinaigrette dressing is one of my salad favs...so healthy too!!  once the kids got over the shock that this was the dinner meal in its entirety ("yep, really, we're just having salad!  honest, you'll survive") most actually really liked it.  i have sliced a fresh baguette with it before to calm their anxiety and sooth their carb cravings and that is delicious too....
thanks Dad!!
