About RubyRedTomato

My name is Ruby, and I am a Christian.  I love the Lord with all of my heart and I also love gardening!  I have been truly blessed with the ability to maintain a garden.  I love working out in the garden, during spring, summer and fall!  I enjoy preparing the soil by hoeing and removing the sod; planting the small plants, seeds and seedlings and then harvesting them, during the harvest season!  In addition to all this, I love canning and freezing all the vegetables that come in during the harvest season like, canned green beans, corn, squash, tomatoes, turnips, peas, carrots, peppers, broccoli and more.  I really enjoy, creating sauces out of some of my harvested vegetables that I have raised.  As a result of planning and harvest season, during the winter months, I can feast at mealtime, on what I have frozen, and, canned in addition to all the sauces that I have created!  I so enjoy what the Lord has blessed me with, during the gardening season!
