Homemade Fruit Picker

You-Tube has it's advantages.  Hubby and I watched a few videos, went out to the barn and got a broken hoe.....

 ...cut out the bottom of a plastic bottle, and stapled the bottle to the handle.  Wa-la.  Not real fancy, but functional and free.  It works too.  Homemade fruit picker is now off the "to buy-it" list.

I woke up early and told Hubby, "I can't can a thing today - no onions."  Which he quickly said at the crack of pre-sun-up, "I can run to the store real quick and get some for you." Ha ha ha!  Oh that burst of energy he has now.  And no, we are still not canning, and no quick trip to the store.  We'll get them later, maybe from the farmstand, but not before 6am, ha ha!

    You two are a force! Taking a break from your breakneck-speed canning doesn't sound like a bad idea. Carpe diem!

    Susan, we ended up picking up about 12 onions just in case we get more tomatoes today. After this we both agreed to rip out all the plants.
