I spent the majority of last weekend, blanching and freezing green beans and squash. Now don’t get me wrong I love having fresh vegetables and I will love having them in the freezer ready for my use at any time. But its so easy to feel just a bit overwhelmed by the massive amounts that […]
Summer Garden week 9
The garden is doing amazingly well. Each day we have several squash, tomatoes, green beans and peppers to pick. We are quickly filling up all the space in our fridge, so this weekend I am going to be doing lots of freezing of the veggies. It so fun once the veggies start coming in. All of DT’s […]

DT has continued to water every other day and we’ve had some cooler mornings this past week which is really nice, but the cooler air has brought in some dryness that we aren’t use to here in South east Texas. Last week I received a few […]
