Here is another one of my fun pens. This one lights up in the bottom, and flashes different colors when I write. I can also turn of the light.
Hubby and I went to a choir concert last night. Two of the girls were in it. However, this morning they are grouchy. Anytime they have an event on a school night, it wears them out.
I'm not sure what's on today's agenda today, other than cleaning up the mess the kids left in the kitchen, and laundry.
Yesterday I filled the dehydrator with more green peppers and one tray of jalapeno peppers. I stocked up the dried ones and ground the cayenne to a powder. Next on the list is making my own onion powder. I'll have to wait until next season to make my garlic powder (unless I can find USA grown garlic here). I re-planted my remaining garlic.
I also made a batch of breakfast burrito filler, using up more green peppers and onions. I still have more in my garden basket too.
If the farmer is far enough away today, I will pull more garden plants, and weed the flower beds. And of course, I'll be writing also. Now that we have the goats dried up, I buy organic milk - $6.99/gallon. We'll need the extra cash if we want milk this winter.
I've tried making powders with onions and garlic but I can't quite get it to the right consistency I want. What do you use to grind them up with? Love all the cute vintage finds on your blog!! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteI have tried grinding my dried veggies in my food processor, and it did not work very well. Then I tried a small coffee bean grinder. It worked great.
ReplyDelete$6.99 a gallon! Yikes!! My goat is drying up and I'm NOT looking forward to having to buy milk again. :(
ReplyDeleteRevisiting your dehydration posts...
ReplyDeleteI'm looking for ideas, reading this one reminded me I have some jalepenos that need to be used up!
