Yippe!!!!:ya I finally did it, I closed on my house and property and got my keys yesterday. I'm so happy I could burst. I have wanted to get some land of my own for so long and needed it to be close to my home so travel would not be a issue. I have looked for 3 years and when something seemed...

Nice! I have never done carrots before.

Serious time lapse for me and now it's October :ep Temps are frigid today but the sun is shining. I have covered the garden for the last week and its no small job but the payoff is worth it. Every tarp , old blanket, re-purposed sheet of plastic has been used. I get used to walking in the dark...

The more you pressure can the easier it will be to trust your work. Remember to follow the instructions for your altitude and you will be just fine. And as you said "When in doubt".... I used to worry about canning meats but I follow all instructions to the letter. I trust my home canned food...

I caught another skunk 2 nights ago and this time it was the spotted variety ( pretty little stinker), I guess that there are plenty more around so I will keep setting the traps. I am getting more eggs now that skunks and racoons aren't filling up at the buffet. It's a green bean bonanza in the...

26 Pints of green beans and then I need to get to work on the strawberries.

What a beautiful setting, it looks so peaceful.

So cute :love

Still waiting for tomatoes to can but I have been overloaded with beans. I get so busy that it's hard to take time to work on my journal.

Hi Scott :welcome

Thank You Moolie for the great ideas on being more prepared. In this area we have had flash flood warnings for the last week and it looks like we will continue to have them for a few more days. Drove to an area today( for a baby shower) that had been hit hard last night and only 1 home had...
