It’s been a chilly week here in Central Missouri. 18° F when I left for the data center this morning. Retiring to sunny Florida can’t come soon enough.

It’s too cold for my bones to mess around doing garden cleanup this weekend so I think I’ll water my plants in the greenhouse then retire to the nice warm workshop and get some fixing done on Mr. Clarence. With any kind of good luck I might have him put back together enough to start the engine sometime tomorrow.

All the hard work gardening and canning last season is paying off. Spaghetti squash smothered in ratatouille on the menu for supper tonight...

The thermostat on our beach house (serves as a greenhouse) crapped out.. So a trip to Menards for a heater was in order. 22 degrees on the lake front.

We are having spaghetti for supper with sauce made from tomatoes we grew this summer. Happy to be a gardener when the winter cold sets in and we have good food.
