So Soon?

We had a premature sprouting this week at The Acre. Back in the fall we rescued some peach pits and put them in the fridge to winter. Over the Christmas fridge cleaning out we discovered the pits had sprouted already. The plan was to keep them happy until spring and then let the warm sun sprout them before planting. We ordered some tree pots and bought some fresh potting soil and got them in the soil. We are keeping the pots in the living room until we can move them out on the deck this spring.

We made a gallon of laundry detergent this past week, but got it done without any pictures. So imagine four quarts of detergent below before we get to the food part.
The food part was kind of short this week, but we were really happy with the results. We started off with a recipe for a citrus pound cake. Cupcake found it on the faceplace and requested one for the new year.

Fresh lemon zest

Fresh orange zest

Then some fresh citrus juice for the glaze

It tasted as good as it looks

The "Outlaw" really loves him some pound cake, we guess he chose the wrong side when it comes to baked goods.
Cupcake made a request for oysters again this week. We saw some in the K-Rogers Saturday afternoon for half price. We knew they were about to expire so we picked up a cheap cup and fried them up as soon as we got them home for a snack.

And we ended the week with a deer roast, and a nap
