The area farmers are taking out their crops, and the dust is as thick as fog around here. My eyes burn when I work outside (trying to stay inside for that). It's very dry, and very hot right now. Temperatures are soaring to the upper 80's. It was 88°F the other day and the heat continues. If we are lucky, the rain will finally be here this week.
We picked the very last of the tomatoes. What is left on the plants are rotting before even ripening. Very strange year overall. We are thankful for what harvest we are getting.
Exhausted. I, ha ha! Am. Exhausted. Taking a few days off canning, and trying to catch up with cleaning, dusting, putting things away, errands, sweeping, dishes, and laundry......
My favorite morning reading, is called "Just Breathe" Devotions and Prayer for the Overwhelmed Heart (and I am loving all of them so far).
Do you infuse honey? I bought lemon balm infused honey from an apothecary, and it did not have any lemon balm flavor or smell (would be better off to infuse it myself). Any thoughts or experiences with infused honey?
I will be trying a few on baked oat breakfasts, yogurt and other foods.
We did a barter with a friend of ours. She bakes sourdough breads for fun (on her days off work), and gives it to friends. She makes all sorts, and crackers. We exchanged a jar of apple butter for a loaf of her organic ingredient made brioche sourdough bread. Oh my goodness! The best bread, and so glad I did not have to bake it. It was a drive to go pick it up, but a well worth "road trip."
