Is it Friday again, ALREADY? WHERE has this week gone? ;)

Tomorrow we’re to have dry weather, so I’m going to go down to the ‘lower garden’ (no easy task - Beau took the 4 wheeler up north for Bear Camp) to harvest Honeynut (a small version of Butternut) and Spaghetti Squash that should be ready by now.

I screwed up and picked the popcorn too early...and then it got moldy. Grrr! Geeze! How long have I been at this game, anyways? Well, just shows you that even we ‘perfeshunal’ gardeners can jump the gun. *Rolleyes*

Next task is to see what else I can harvest from the garden. I know I have a TON of Basil, so Pesto it is. I also know I have four HUGE red cabbages that need dealing with - I’m thinking of making those grilled cabbage steaks...anyone ever tried them? Some will be chopped and frozen for winter stews and soups, of course.

The seven puppies that I’m currently raising (8 weeks old, today) will be MORE than happy to ‘help’ me with all of those gardening chores tomorrow...so we’ll see what ACTUALLY gets accomplished.

A. They’re so friggin’ ADORABLE that all I want to do is play with and cuddle them, and then...

B. They’re still so underfoot that doing anything is going to be a chore in itself...until their ADHD kicks in and they go off to chase a butterfly or their own tails. :)
