Happy Monday!!

This weekend we finished cleaning up the garden and planting the garlic!! We also finished up the herbs to get them drying. I have salsa to make still as well as onion relish!! We have a few more berries to pick as well. We planted one row of carrots so we’ll see how that goes - one of my aunts usually plants her carrots in the fall, so I’m interested to see how it works! I’m almost ready for winter!

Do you plant anything in the fall time?

Happy Saturday!

It was a little snowy today! We picked the oregano, chives and mint as well as a few jalapeños, raspberries and strawberries.

To warm up, we made fresh bread and a delicious pot of split pea and ham soup which I used a ham bone and cooked it most of the day. It was delicious on this chilly day!

Happy Wednesday!!

We finished the last of the cabbage rolls! These are ground beef, onion and rice. After we rolled them, we froze them to enjoy later!! I’m looking forward to fresh cabbage rolls! They’re one of my favorites!!

Happy Monday!!

I feel like my days are all running together, we’ve been so busy!

Today I trimmed some mint — the mint is so unruly even though I’ve already trimmed it. I trimmed quite a bit of it again today and will trim more layer this week! I’ll be drying the mint for tea.

We trimmed all the sunflowers and now the heads are drying so we can harvest the seed. That was quite the job!

And we have two pieces of asparagus we can harvest and eat! The rest we need to let dry before trimming it back for the winter.

I just have some more chives to trim, oregano and the rest of the dill once it finishes going to seed as well as the mint and we are basically done harvesting the garden for this year!!

I’m glad the weather has been nice enough for us to finish! It was a beautiful +23C/73F today!!

Happy Monday!!

Today we finished harvesting the garden!! We got one mini corn cob that we can eat and the rest did not develop kernels (too late in the year to do so), but we will see if we are able to use them for seed next year!

Pansies are still so pretty.

Happy October!! And Happy Sunday!!  I nearly forgot Sunday Sillies…let’s get to it!
