Harvest







          In the Southern Hemisphere it is mid spring now, and it is time to plant pumpkin’s, squash, tomato’s, corn, lettuce, the list is endless, all depends on how large your veggie patch is, it is not the time to harvest anything


                                                      but wait

                                                        how could I

                                                          forget

                                                            that I do have

                                                              a harvest

                                                                and not just any ordinary

                                                                   but the SUPER veggie






                                                                           BROCCOLI
                                                                 You should eat your
                                                                           because
                                                                             it is

   full of antioxidant's that protect your body from coughs, sneezes, arthritis and cancer.

But wait
             
        there's more,

     it has

            FIBRE.
 
 You don't like your broccoli,
best advice,
              ever,
 hide your broccoli,
        how?

pull out the food processor,
       pop the broccoli into the machine and
           give it a whiz.
 Then add to the pizza sauce, the lasagne sauce, meat loaf, gravy,

              BE SNEAKY,





              CHOCOLATE CAKE, yeess, but not too much
                         Or
                   if you dare
                                  the coleslaw

 like the 10 commandments,
 broccoli is good for you.
God gave them both to us,
 we should be thankful.

                     But
                   Wait 

There’s more

             leave the broccoli in the garden,
                        if given plenty of water and good fertilizer,
                                          will turn from green to small yellow flowers,






 the broccoli blooming,
 is pretty,
 why don't we pick them and put them into a vase?

 Note to self; if I feed myself time with God, I should bloom too.




BUT WAIT.


    There is more,

 and maybe this is why I don't pick broccoli flowers,
         the flowers will fade,
                            and die,
                 and the plant will look ordinary

 not SUPER,

but at work within the plant is a miracle,
watch and after a while,
you will notice that where the yellow flowers were is becoming thicker,
 work is being done,
  seed is growing,
   getting ready to harvest
         for
     the new crop of



            awesomely

                                            SUPER 
                                BROCCOLI.


                                                                Don't ever think
                                                                        That

                                               GOD

                                                          is not at work
                                                               Love your broccoli
                                                                    because like
                                                                                    
                                                             GOD

                                                                  it is good for you.
