Gardening is more than just digging in the dirt – it’s about embracing the beauty in simplicity. Every time we plant, we’re not just planting a seed in the soil, we’re planting happiness in our hearts. No matter what challenges come our way, the earth offers us a chance to nurture life and watch it grow, just like our own sense of self-care. 🌼🌱🌞

Last year we were blessed with butter nut squash volunteer in my garden.
This year we got a different one. Not sure what this is called here but we call it “kondol” in the Philippines.
Any ideas how to cook them?

Saw this lady dancing gracefully at the beach one summer day. And the beaches in my hometown (Guiuan) are as beautiful as Boracay or Coron in Palawan, Philippines, so check it out!

After we put used pine shavings we use for ground cover in our chicken coup into our garden beds, our Swiss chard got bigger and healthier!

Will definitely check this out at Trader Joe’s! We used to grow ube in my hometown in the Philippines. Hoping they’re still growing this today. I remember we would harvest this crop in December because we would make Ube Halaya, a popular dessert for Christmas parties and gatherings. But now it’s a popular flavor for pastries and desserts like halo-halo - year round! Hey, it’s not a halo-halo if there’s no ube in one of the ingredients!

A vibrant veggie native to Asia is the main component of this sought after dessert. Sadly, it can be hard to get your hands on due to limited production.
