Good Morning Merilee and all
I think I am gonna survive this cold. I started out good yesterday but got soaked in the rain twice and cold. By the afternoon I felt terrible. So I was overjoyed when I woke up feeling good this morning. Waiting for my tractor to do my chores but a condensed version of them today as it is so wet. Hard to get around. the sun is shining so that will be marvelous! I got out all my bountiful baskets (I bought 2) and seeing what to make to use them up. I am gonna start by washing all the leaf lettuce and roll up in towel and put in fridge. It lasts so much longer this way. I bought some lettuce by mistake at sams so need to use that up 1st. We have been getting awesome baskets. Between my 2 baskets I had 3 pineapple, 3 small watermelons, 2 bags of apples and probably 10 out of the bag. 6 small heads of broccoli, 4 sets of onions, 2 lg cucumber, 8 roma tomatoes, 4 lg green peppers, 5 lg orange peppers. I think I will make a crockpot of applesauce with some from my other time. Then I will have a crockpot of supper in the other 1. I also bought 15 lbs of tomatoes. We love salsa so if I don't use them for salads or cooking I will use them in salsa. I need to start working at pulling out last years stuff out of my garden beds. Some I did in the fall but some was still growing. I have to do some bookwork I have been ignoring. We have had tons of laundry with the wet muddy weather but am not complaining a lick. We need moisture to survive here. Better get hopping and will check in on here later.
