Corn and Pasta?

I was at the store the other day looking at many gluten/wheat free options and saw corn pasta. I thought well it can't be bad it's corn. I was happy to see it was non GMO and Organic as well. I cooked this corn Spaghetti last night with a nice Cajun Alfredo sauce and it was oh so delicious. It didn't have a funny texture or taste. It was just a delicious noodle. I was very happy to find such a yummy option .

Sprummer!

I know it's not a word but it is a great way to explain the weather we have had this year so far . We have been keeping busy here with the garden. We have five beds now. We are growing 4 or 5 varieties of tomatoes this year as well as broccoli,carrots,Kambooza melon,zucchini,watermelon,potatoes,radishes,beets,lettuces,serranos,gypsy peppers,strawberries, raspberries,grapes,peppermint,spearmint,yarrow,stevia,thyme,oregano,lemon balm,and a few other things I can't think of at the moment . The garden is growing far better then last year . We also found out we have an apple tree which I am very excited about as are the girls . It brings so much joy to grow your own food. I am thankful that my black thumb is only with indoor plants.
