Post #73 - It's the most wonderful time of the year

I went to my favorite Amish produce farm today only to find out that he no longer has the help to keep up the produce stand. He sold me a bushel of Roma tomatoes anyway.  He said most of his 5 brothers and 2 sisters have moved on and he probably won't have a stand next year, either. I'm really going to miss dealing with him. I am more heartbroken about not getting fresh garlic than anything else.

So I stopped at another farm and stocked up on bell peppers, yellow onions, candy onions (sweet), and watermelon.

 While driving home a friend called and offered some fresh-dug potatoes so I drove there and also got some corn and cucumbers.
These four potatoes and three ears of the corn played a big role in supper last night along with a pepper and an onion. Yum, yum.

And while at the grocery store Wednesday I picked up some fresh peaches and fall mums. 

Isn't this a great time of year?

Post #38 - Say what?

Whoever is in charge of keeping this blog up to date: You're fired.

Two weeks without a post is way too long.  Let's try harder, guys.

On a sadder note, several of my blogging friends have experienced hackers or picture thieves. So, from now on I will be putting a watermark on photos.  This will make blogging a little more labor intensive. I might put up fewer pictures. We will see how that pans out.


Spring is here, my friends.  The trees are beginning to bud. The birds are returning. The snow is melting. It's just a matter of time before the color returns to the landscape.
