Vegetables and the Cutting Board

growing vegetables in the desert?   a challenge!

here are baby yellow summer squashes

sometimes I am outside early in the morning, doing things before it gets too hot, for so long that I get very hungry and munch on grapes while I make breakfast...

yes, vegetables for breakfast, kind of like expanding an omelette so it is more fillings than eggs...the squash and onion in this photo come from my desert garden.  As  I looked at this image, I realized I have had this wooden cutting board for 30 years....seems impossible...and magical somehow...
