Random Tidbits

We shucked all of the sweet corn, so that once-a-year job is done.   Tiger was standing by for the first bag (right in the photo).  He loves to chew on the husks.

I went to the garden, but knew as my feet squashed into the ground it would not reveal anything to pick.  The only thing I picked was a bucket full of bettles, and a few squash.

  Back to the kitchen I went.

I'm busy canning, which is a wonderful feeling.  Hubby brought home some zucchini from a co-worker, and I knew what his intentions were.  He held one of the up and asked how many cups I could get from that one zucchini.  After I answered, he revealed a bag of them.

I'll be chopping a lot of vegetables, after I can peach jam today.  He better hope I have a few hot banana peppers (on my only plant), and one jalapeno too.

Somewhere in that time, I have to make tortillas for tonight's dinner - egg/pinto bean/cheese wraps.  I woke up to find 1 tortilla in the container.  I am pretty sure I'll have to wait for school to start, before I can get some stored in the freezer.  




If you shop at Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds, you probably got an email from them, telling you about how congress is trying to deny voters from passing any bills for gmo labeling. 

Here is one link if you are interested in knowing what's going on:  Tell Congress to Protect Your Right to Know:  Oppose the Dark Act
