Detour!

Every time I start to the studio to work on the novel I'm writing, or to check mail, or to play scrabble , or to blog, I get detoured by the garden.

We have consumed four tomatoes already, and there are at least four more ready by tomorrow. I picked a small bowl full of green beans this morning. Squash is still blooming. Onions need pulling.

Now, obviously, we don't have a big garden. Just a few raised beds.
But it's so much like receiving a gift every time I walk by, it makes me get all excited. 

Not to mention hungry.

So, while writing, and e-mail, and playing scrabble, and blogging are fun, it's not as much fun as playing in the dirt, and coming out with food.

It's just like magic.
