I'm so Happy

In my fingers I hold a precious little treasure. I so didn't want to be disappointed so I didn't spy or peek. Secretly I had a tiny little bit of hope that I kept to myself. Today though, I was feeling pretty bold and I thought, what do I have to lose? I've experienced triumphs and I've experienced failures, so with that in mind I plunged my fingers into the dirt. I searched around and then some more but I didn't find anything. I dug under the plant was almost out of the dirt and there, right below the plant was a PEANUT! I let out a whoop that was probably heard across the state.
I covered the roots right back up to give my little babies a tiny bit more time to grow. Aaaaah! The best revenge is success. Now I get to make plans... peanut butter?
I got a a package on my doorstep this week that was full of surprises for me and my family. My friend Laura Mayer runs and owns the Art Garden in Ephrata,Washington. She is a very talented gal. Thank you Lala.

Peanut butter--Is that a joke? How could you sacrifice your little peanut babies? This is huge. You need to clean them and then display them for all the world to see that you are a successful peanut maker. You go Cass!
