- Technically I have 11 days left until I return to work. However, with our quick Florida trip to see Haley, I have 5 days at home. I am in get everything done mood!
- Today, I was able to make and can another 8 pints of salsa. I checked and we may need another 4 pints to make sure we can make it an entire year. But this is an awesome start!
- I also found a recipe that I can make up and place in the freezer for the days that I just don’t have enough time and or brain width to cook. I will be making 4 bags of these tomorrow.
- I decided that I needed a day of rest yesterday so that is exactly what I did. No cooking and no canning or baking.
- We made our first loaf of zucchini bread today and it is AWESOME! We are starting to get a couple of zucchini at a time from the garden. I have discovered that zucchini is a vegetable that can be planted for a fall harvest. Our plants have been struggling all year and finally look healthy and alive so I am hopeful that we will continue to get a couple of zucchini each week until the end of October? Who knows.
- Cucumbers are another vegetable that I can get a second harvest from. I will be planting another round when we get back from Florida.
- We had been watering the garden every day since our return from the beach on July 15th until last Sunday, July 30th. One of our barrels was even empty from rain water. We have had some massive storms that past week and now one rain barrel is full and the other is 80% full.
