Harvesting And Eating

Because it was supposed to rain this afternoon, Jon went outside right away this morning and cut the lawn.  After breakfast, Rachel and Jessie picked up sticks that fell from the past several storms we've had.  I even went out and did a bit of weeding and weed wacking. 

Girls day out was a little different today, as Debbie is on vacation with her parents in the UP and Rachel is working for her.  I took the girls to McDonald's and the post office and just came home.  I spent the next several hours in the kitchen.  We blanched and froze sugar snap peas and green beans.  The cauliflower had to be removed as it has gotten too much rain and wasn't growing well. 

Lois came for dinner and we had home grown boiled potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers, and a yellow squash casserole that also had a home grown onion in it.  We also had a pork loin chop and cantaloupe and grapes for dessert.  Pretty healthy, I'd say.  Very tasty, too.
