It is that time of the year when plants need divided. I have a friend who just built a new home and is need of some landscaping. A good deal for both of us. I am more than happy to share.
We had a wonderful visit. I look forward to our yearly tradition. Phyllis and I spent some time discussing the family cookbook I'm working on, Cozy Cabin Kitchen. I've been adding recipes, photos, and stories like crazy. I want it done by Christmas.
Speaking of cooking. I finally made my beautiful cabbage into coleslaw. 1/2 c. Miracle Whip, 1/4 c. Milk, 2T. Vinegar, and dash if salt and pepper. Don't forget the grated carrot also from the garden. It was perfect.
I got all sorts of good things from the garden and was happy to share.
My husband harvested his giant pumpkin. It weighed a whopping 3 1/2 pounds. He is already making plans for next year.
I picked and ate my Minnesota Midget Melon. They weren't kidding. It was good, but it was mighty small.
Not quite what I was looking for in a melon. That is pretty much my week. Busy, but productive. I have been doing a little bow hunting here and there. So far, I've seen a little badger and this fawn. Tonight I'm watching the bluejays eat the acorns.
I hope you all have a wonderful and productive week.
Your husband's pumpkin made me laugh! I would LOVE to share perennials with someone. I have dreams of digging up some of my beds and starting fresh. -Jenn
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed reading your newsy post. Glad to see the snow melted quickly. We've had 30 degree mornings here. Something new for us transplants for the Mid Atlantic state of MD.
ReplyDeleteHow kind of you to share! And you even labeled the bags, now that's a real friend.
ReplyDeleteThey keep trying to sell me a new phone but I've declined every time. They are a pain.
You have been busy. We have coleslaw with lunch most days so my kitchen is like a coleslaw factory. Did you share the melon?
ReplyDeletesharing your garden is one of the best aspects of gardening!! i make my coleslaw the same way but with hellmans mayo and a dash of garlic powder!!
ReplyDeletei hope the husband didn't promise anyone a pumpkin!!??
