Summer's Over?

Summer can't be over, not already!! But sadly enough, it is. School starts Monday! Most are happy to ship the kids back to school, but I'm not. I like being home on the farm; whether we're working in the garden, swimming, or just watching the chickens peck or the baby cows nurse. Life on the farm is good.

We've been picking green beans every couple days, hoping to save some green at the grocery store this winter. Tonight is corn night, our first decent sweet corn crop in a few years, we're excited!

Although we had those eight inches of rain in May, it is VERY dry now. We had a decent rain with hail on Aug. 2 but we haven't cut the grass since. Had we not watered the garden, it would be a desert.

Back to the kitchen I go, got beans to blanche!
