Congratulation on 30 year!!

(16 Lb Boneless Prime! Not a small investment!)

I watered the garlic and potato onions. Like you said, it has been warm and the tops were poking through. Also watered rhubarb and Viking Aronia, the lilacs (including Moscow beauty!) and some replanted day lily beds.

I have some fig trees in the basement with a couple of florescent lights and a south window and they have amazingly, been ripening figs even though all the leaves have fallen off. However, its probably taking longer because with those leave gone. I may just just remove the remaining figs and get them dorment before we get to much deeper into winter. Once dormant I can prune them and will have some cuttings that I can sell or give away.

I will get some seeds this year even though I probably do not need them. (It is prudent to have them of course....) I will buy more fertilizer than I need. Same reason.

In any case have a great anniversary!

Between the bad weather and covid exposures, my guest list for today has dwindled a bit, so I cut the roast down to 8lbs. It’s going into the Traeger real soon now.

I’ll toss the other half in the freezer to save for another day.
