Bought a case of organic cauliflower on sale – 1/2 price. Will make a bunch of my cauliflower queso this weekend and freeze it in ice cube trays. It does well in the freezer. Will need to pick up more carrots tomorrow and I think I have enough of everything else.
Found a 1992 Mother Earth News with several harvest articles and a great article on huckleberries. They grow in the mountains around here and are quite popular.I learned a few tricks.
I’ve also been reading Living Terrors. Kind of makes me want to grab all my family and hide, but life doesn’t work that way.
The snow is rapidly disappearing so we’re dealing with “mud season” up here. Glad for the end of snow and cold weather- it was like someone threw a switch.
Doing my exercises in hopes of having good arm mobility again some day.
Little Sister- all those “things” you’re not getting done are only things – enjoy whatever family you can get. Very rarely do families all stay in the same place. So it’s really nice when you can be together. I’m not getting things done like I want either. Tiny cabin, two good sized dogs for a year (the “small horse” and her parent have left on another journey) and a shattered shoulder have certainly cramped my energy, but I feel a burst of wanting to do things. Not enough energy yet for everything but I’m getting there. My shoulder is healing and the sun is shining. There is hope!
The calendar says it is day two of spring. Enjoy whatever version of spring you have. And enjoy the birds.
