it is June … and we are getting ready for winter :D

[littlewolf]

the lovely and talented wife is making squash pickles and
a squash casserole to go with dinner …
soon will be putting up beans (green and butter)
and tomatoes …

but it will be worth it come winter…

1. feels good to produce your own food

2. My tomato plants

have beautiful yellow flowers.

I spent .25 cents on 1 pack of tomato seeds.

I have 13 plants over 3 feet high.

If I just get 1 tomato I will come out ahead of the game.

3. You are so right about that

So glad you are planting. Hopefully you will be plentiful and maybe more then enough to give away a few.

4. I've already blanched & frozen 25 quarts of green beans. Butter beans and tomatoes doing well also.

Hope to have a nice turnip patch ready by September. Only problem is I'm getting too damn old to keep doing all this gardening work.
