Good Morning To all! Last week the nights got really cold and in the blink of an eye the leaves started to change. We have orange and one yellow dashes of color on the mountain side. This morning at 6am it was 38 degrees! I feel a frost might happen soon. I ahve to be sure to cover my tomatoes and peppers and squash up when it comes. The summer has gone fast. Living in Pa just a stones throw from the NY border we have a pretty long winter. Out first snow flurry is always the first week of November. My chicks for meat ddidn't arrive for one reason or another at the feed store until July. So that means I will be butchering in November. I hope the snow isn't flying when I need to get them done! Our goats are 5 months almost six and I ran out of money to build another pasture. So I have to do alot of juggling to keep my bucks away from my does as I dont' want them to breed until next breeding season when they are over 1 yr. I have so much to do ! Let's see here is my list of things that need immediate ( as soon as possiable)to be done: Can the watermelon rind into watermelon rind pickles ( first time we've doen and tried I will lete youknow how they turn out.) Make a simple cheese recipe for the first time. Weed the sweet potatoe patch so we can acually find the plants when it is time to harvest them. Renivate neighbors old building into goose house. Build green house and plant in it. I must sit down and plan eaxctly when to do all of these things. Autumn is my favortie season. I love the leaves changing, the cool crisp air, the harvest, putting by all the food we've grown! My favorite time of the year! God's Blessing to you and your families! Enjoy the day that hath made! Mama
