I'm totally jealous! :hit

Chicken pot pie - carbs be da@@ed!

Speaking of crickets... I did try to raise my own crickets for fish bait. I purchased some at my local pet store and set them up a little habitat. They lasted about 6 weeks, but eventually died off. Guess I can't ditch the store when I want to fish with crickets. However, the tub o' worms...

Five quarts of charro beans w/sausage - done!

I'll can more beans today. I found some bones and skin from a previously picked over rotisserie chicken that I made stock out of yesterday. I'll use that in some charro flavored pinto beans I plan on canning today.

It's been all around us but nothing here for a couple days. I expect that to totally change, probably starting this afternoon/evening. There's a little system skirting along the coast from Florida. It's supposed to impact Louisiana much more than us, but we'll likely get significant rain out...

Agree 100%!

Hate those restless hours - might as well get up. Up at 5:45 this morning to beat the heat. First cup down, sun is up, gotta get busy.

Got a canner load of beans done yesterday - I'll try to get another load done today. Made chicken/veggie soup for dinner yesterday with a can of chicken that didn't seal. :mad: Soup was good though. It'll probably be even better today...yum!

UGH!

Progress!

Maybe there's a cherry tree or three in your future???

Sheesh - you've had enough rain already!

Been busy today. Did two workouts with DH this morning. One of 'em I got to work out and the other one I got to hold him up while he worked on his sucky balance. It's important though so we keep plugging away at it. He's supposed to be getting 6 weeks of PT. They came for the first 3 weeks...

Sounds delish! We could do that with a low-carb tortilla.
