CSA Report: Blooming Glen Farm
Wednesday, July 08, 2009
(Click photo to read notes at flick’r regarding names/quantities of share.)
I was excited to see new in the share this week, onions and an heirloom tomato. So excited in fact, that I ate almost the entire tomato for breakfast…
So listen, onions and tomatoes are both great and all, but what Blooming Glen Farm really did this week was far more amazing.
It occupied a hyper three-year-old, too cool 12-year-old and angst ridden 14-year-old. ALL AT ONCE. FOR FREE. I’m sure I don’t need to go into how incredible and amazing a feat this was—especially since it’s several weeks into summer break and I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one LOSING MY MIND—so instead, I’ll simply share the awesomeness here, for posterity. Behold, the wonders caused by pick-your-own flowers at Blooming Glen Farm:

I don’t want to ruin this moment, so I’m going to quit while I’m ahead and just say, “Thank you Blooming Glen Farm, for reminding me that I actually really do love kids.”

Thanks, Sarah >_< The too cool 12-year old boy on the left is mine, the others are his cousin (“Little” Mikaela—I’m “Big” Mikaela) and brother (Aren—different momma, same poppa). They’re quite a crew, aren’t they
Wonderful post!
