‘Swedish Death Cleaning’
That’s the plan for my Greenhouse by the weekend, too!
I have a picture to post of the ‘Harvard Square’ tomato for you. You will be impressed! Uploading photos today at some point. I’ll ping ya.
Putting off mowing for another day. No company coming, so who sees it but me? A few things outside need watering, and it was so windy yesterday that two Mums blew off the porch, so I need to tend to them with some fresh soil and a good watering.
We DO have company coming Sunday & Tuesday & lots of tree debris to go! Mom & I worked until 7 last night - both of us were whipped. Later start this morning - should get up to 86, but with a breeze & low humidity. Gnats are still horrible.
Soup .... I am craving split pea soup & after Tuesday, will make a batch. I trialed a gluten free chicken & rice casserole Wednesday night & it was good, so I have something to make for the couple Tuesday since she is gluten free. GF is an expensive way to live - 3lb. of GF flour was $8+ & a very small box of GF graham cracker cookies, that I need for a crust (cheesecake jars), was $5.99.
Further delay getting going this morning .... pulling the truck out of the barn & noticed my groundhog trap door was down. That was interesting because I had moved the trap away from the brush pile where they have dens, and up the hill under a cedar tree. I didn’t remember closing the trap door. No bait & fairly open location. Mom was dumping tree debris on the pile at one den hole & I didn’t want her running over the trap (she ran over my Squirrelinator at the old house).
So I walked down almost to the trap, close enough to see I did have a groundhog. Not the biggest I’ve caught, but smaller ones grow bigger so I am just happy to have caught yet one more. Mom has been seeing one run between the pole shed & the den hole (a pretty good distance between) so hopefully this is that groundhog
