Fall is in the air for sure!

I spent that last few days under a mountain of green beans and tomatoes. Potatoes being pulled soon, but we just leave those covered with dirt and stored in the walk in refrigerator in an out building.

Five little piggies that aren’t so little are going to butcher soon, so freezers full again.

Oh, I miss my own pork. Haven’t raised a hog in years, since the milk cow was sold. Milk makes amazing meat. Didn’t have a large freezer then so I canned a bunch of the meat. Lasted for years in the jar.

My attempt at home grown food was a couple of tomato plants and a yellow squash this year. I LOVE tomatoes but I didn’t thin the the blooms and most of the tomatoes were small. I got several nice yellow squash in enough of an interval I was able to pick before they got to big and saute them. Yummy!!
