This morning Maw and I harvested vegetables from our garden — Romaine lettuce, basil and cilantro. She took a long time to wash the leaves and cut off the dried parts. Then she put those into two bags one for Minh and Indy, both of whom we called to make sure they were home. Both of us went to Minh’s house first and I placed the bag on her front porch and past the white iron grill. Then we went over to Indy’s house and I was greeted by the Indy’s daughter-in-law, who looks like Zinnia, the wife of my maternal first cousin.
A few minutes ago, Minh came by with a bag of small tomatoes from her garden. Some are red but mostly green and small in size, too. Her husband Ben was waiting in the white car and ready to visit the daughter who was waiting for them. Maw was her usual excited self and wouldn’t stop talking up a storm.
Today is truly a fine day of beautiful weather and friendly people. It’s good to know that the world in still blessed with abundance of sharing food, money and thoughts. Only the Satanic network and MSM pals continue to shed their “light and love” of purple cooties to ruin the serenity and calm of “God’s” kingdom.
Addendum: I was thinking of barter system in which neighbors exchange certain goods and services for other stuff. But I see the banking system works well for the meantime. For the readers who know what I’m talking about, it’s okay either way.
