After a shower on 8-12-11

The sky was beautiful after a shower we had last night. Double rainbow and sunset so pretty.

Beautiful Clouds

The last few days the temps have been cooler. Clouds are just big puffy cotton balls. This picture is just pretty blue skies. I am off starting next Thurs.-Mon. and temps are to go back up! We would like to do alot outside. Will see.

New material I just got

I got this yesterday for bibs, burp rags and barbie aprons.

My a.m. doings

Was up about 5 to put a roast on for supper to make shredded bbq and I decided to do the zucchini all up that we had given to us. Shredded 6 cups for the freezer and I made 6 big loaves and 4 little ones of bread. Gave some away, put 2 in the freezer will take one to work tom.. That is my daily 24 cups of hummingbird cooling in the back.

On the way to work this a.m.

I love seeing the finches on the weeds. At times flocks of them take off. Normally there are 5 turkeys (have been since last year) and this a.m. only 4. I see them almost daily.

Potato Harvest

Out of 10 pounds got about 45 lbs.. Planted another 100 pounds and got zinch. They rotted. He is soaking wet picking them up. They were planted on top the ground with straw put over them so just had to rake it away and pick them up.

My only canning

These tomatos are from our neighvors- sons boss also. Our garden was a bust this summer. Hoping to get stuff out for fall but so hot and dry. Was extremely wet earlier spring/summer.

We normally can alot during the summer. Salsa, tomatos, pickles, beets, green beans etc.
