We have been thoroughly enjoying having green drink back on the menu these past few days! I missed it, but never knew how much until I took my first sips of a new batch. Wow! I love that stuff! Elizabeth and Alice have been drinking tall glasses of it as well--in multiples.
You know, having the recent "difficulties" in the spinach supply makes me think I should be more serious about planting my own. I could even plant it 2 or 3 times in succession, so I had fresh baby spinach all summer long. It seemed so sad that in August and September, the best harvest months for a summer garden, that I had NO spinach! I have been getting too dependent on the easy greens from the grocery store! Maybe this is a reason the prophet said we should be planting gardens... Not because food wouldn't be available, but because we couldn't depend on it (or it might actually make us sick?)
Maybe I'll have to talk to you about planting spinach... my crop this year was not quite what I was expecting (and I forgot to plant it again).
