Fresh and Delicious

- Lamb chops
- Lettuce, corn and tomatoes from the Stepped In What? stand

Dinner tonight was so delish! Everything was prepared in the easiest way, and we devoured every bite. Luckily it wasn't too hot and we were able to grill the chops, which were basted with olive oil and sprinkled with salt and pepper. The corn was boiled with a little sugar added to the water. Lettuce and tomatoes were tossed with a simple salad dressing and grated parm we keep on hand.

Longwood Gardens

Yesterday, I went to visit Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, PA. It is over 1000 acres of horticulture amazingness. The garden was started by Pierre S. DuPont in the early 1900's and is now run by a charitable trust since his passing in 1954. If you are ever in the Philadelphia, PA area, I suggest you take half a day to explore this treasure!

There were thousands upon thousands of different plants, and I had fun photographing some of my favorites. One day when I am able to have a beautiful garden, I will go back to my pics and take another trip to Longwood Gardens to be inspired and decide what to plant.
