    What's for dinner?

    When I was in 5th and 6th grade in Universal City/Cibolo Texas, my favorite meal at a local hole in the wall restaurant was onion and cheese enchiladas. I still remember them all these decades later!

    What did you do in your garden today?

    Pulled the entire garden yesterday. Sprinkled some seeds for winter soil building. Covered them with the pulled zuc, squashes, eggplants, and some tomatoes.

    If you own a dehydrator, slice cucs thin on a mandoline. Then season the top as you wish. Then dehydrate. I love them this way!!

    I turned off the water for all beds. I need to rip them up. I did buy some cover crop seeds from Territorial Seeds. I'm hoping that they add substance to my raised beds.

    For @Mini Horses Bet you didn’t know that a goat burps one to four times a minute! How about humans? One unscientific study found they burp on average about 30 times a day. So, moral of the story: Don’t get into a burping contest with a goat!
