Our veggie garden has been so good to us over this past summer. Bottles and bottles of tomato sauce with herbs and pesto now lie preserved in our freezer ready for the long winter months ahead. Another awesome display of vital goodness came from our sweet pea lined fence. What an intoxicating fragrance for such a small flower, and the colours - an ultra feminine array of pale pink, deep burgundy, violet, coral and cream. I wish they'd last forever...

There is a very obvious element of "unknown" in the air at the moment. The past few days have been the hardest for many, and my sincerest thoughts are with those of you who are affected by Japan's most recent tragedy.

I believe that it's in times like these that we are reminded of this precious gift we call life, and I feel the following words by Anthony J. D'Angelo sum it up quite nicely, "The most important things in life aren't things."
