It's the final push of activity before Old Man Winter begins to rear his ugly head...
I was a whirlwind of activity yesterday, it's amazing how things add up around here, and we don't even have that big of an operation, but if you do some things on your own (without corporations) you'll know what I mean. Fall is the time of the "crunch".
Since we began homesteading I've finally learned to enjoy the winter. I used to hate winter before. Now I just "die"...literally I allow myself to die, to be slow, to go to bed super early (which I could never do before because I was an eternal night hawk) and take joy in doing nothing.
My musical selection for your scrolling...
Buns: Gramma Anne's recipe of course!
Homestead Soup!
This I made 2 days prior, all ingredients from our homestead except salt, pepper and garlic. Chicken bones which I cooked with onion and garlic for 24 hours to make the broth. Carrots and chicken, oregano and sage. A really simple one because had a bit of a stomach bug.
More Veggie Harvesting And Saving Seeds
The cosmo seeds still had a bit of green on them so I transferred them to a paper bag.
Bagging seeds I had been drying all over the house lol!
And Final Bonus...
I hope you enjoyed poking around our humble homestead, I left some things out like taking care of the chickens, the meat birds and my other chore drudgery but you get the hint, yesterday was a busy day. The thing that made me finally stop was when I burned my arm pulling out the last buns after we had supper. I felt so sick after, it was a pretty good one. I ended up just having a shower and reading my book for the rest of the night. Oh and of course stalking my friends on the Steem blockchain!
