We got past the 100 degree weather.  Heat index was like 110.  Our garden is toast. We might get some green beans, getting very few tomatoes. and just a few green peppers. Though we were watering during the really hot days, it just didn’t help. Another thing I have noticed is that I have not seen any bees around the garden. So that might be a problem.

Took advantage of prime day and got a couple of life straws and some other things I needed. Found some good prices.

Still have a lot to get done around here. Seems every time I go to get another room started, something comes up to stop me and it takes forever to get it done. But the office that I have been working on for the past 3 months if finished.

Daughter and I are heading to Nags head this Sat. and going to hit the farms. I have had nothing to can this year, so going to see what I can buy from the farms in North Carolina. Guess if we do have a SHTF situation it would not be good for our gardens to fail like it has the past 2 years with this year being the worst.  So I am just glad I have some 25 year back up freeze dried foods for that purpose. I have used some of that to make sure of how it taste and how easy it would be to rehydrate it. Trial and era but I figured it all out and it works good but so expensive. What I have now is from a company that went out of business about 5 years ago. But at the prices now, It would be to expensive unless I could find some good deals.

granny smith, that sounds like a great idea to have Sunday meals to go.
