I am already dreaming about gardens and exactly what I can plant this season. At our home a garden means plenty of vegetables. Part of preparing for the summer harvest means locating exactly the right tools to prep those vegetables for dinnertime. We certainly need to put in a peeler that’s ready for the hard skins of butternut squash, in addition to the softer apples my daughter likes to munch on. It appears the 1 peeler we have is always missing at our house. So maybe it’s time to pick on on one of those peelers. They’re definitely up to the job.
