Summer has been beautiful, the garden lush and the bounty was very plentiful. With all of that it was also the passing of Hobo, our oldest Schipperke. Laid to rest at a favorite sleeping spot.
Back down to a two dog farm, Bear has become a true farm dog.. you can always find him laying next to barn/driveway watching for any happenings he should manage or add his two cents in by barking his opinion. Liza is a front porch sleeper. Both of them wander amongst the chickens like old friends. Getting older and a little stiff in the joints so walks are not as long because I can't carry two home :) when they get too tired!
I have managed to can something almost every weekend. The past two have been the final collection from the Tomoatillo plants. This makes a fantastic green salsa that gets eaten fast! The first batch of 7 jars is already gone. I put up 13 more and hope it lasts until spring. If your into cooking or canning there are great recipes at http://dustbathladies.blogspot.com/ her post inspire me to get to cooking and try new stuff.
