It was a slow week here at the Acre. Big Man has been recovering from Lyme disease, and a thirty day regimen of anti-biotics. Hardest part was not being able to work outside in the sun. He referred to himself as "Vampire Bill" for a month.
Towards the end of the week we managed to get another picking of cucumbers from the garden, so that means another batch of "them yellow pickles".
Pop came through with another batch of tomatoes, so we made another batch of tomato sauce, once again using fresh basil from Cupcake's herb garden.
We also managed a small picking of October beans from the garden. These last two rows were heirloom seeds from a neighbor lady, said the seed had been in her family for 80+ years, so we will be cutting out a bag of them to keep the tradition alive. While we were in the garden, Kattie Grace and J.B. found the camera.....
And snapped a few photo's of our sunflowers too...
The last pic of the post is "Fraidy Mutt" helping us hull October beans. She will steal and eat green beans, but these she would actually break open and knock the beans out of the hull without eating them. Crazy dog.
That's our week so far. It's chicken wing Sunday, so all is right with the world.
