Good Neighbor

We have some really good neighbors. One of them brought me some home grown lettuce, cucumbers and her tomatoes are almost ready. She is so good to bring us fresh vegetables. I, in turn, bake and give her cookies and cake and things she doesn't have around her house because her husband is diabetic. It is fun to exchange things like that. I also help her out with a ride uptown now and then when she needs one.

The Neighbor

We have a very good neighbor who has a big garden across the way from us. She brings us all kinds of fresh vegetables from her garden. Last week she brought me a bunch of Swiss Chard. It is much like spinach and I love spinach. Then she brought some yellow summer squash and enough to give my other neighbor next door. Also cucumbers, so crisp and good, I really like those. Now the tomatoes are starting and there is nothing like a home grown tomato, unlike the half green, hard ones you get in the grocery store. I send home cake and cookies or pie if I have it because those are things that she doesn't get or have in the house as her husband is diabetic.
