I am still playing around with header or no header....this one fits but is too large! More changes to come.
Garden
Yesterday was a good day. I went out fairly early and planted a row of tomatoes (two cattle panels long), all the many and varied peppers (I lost my mind here!) and 5 eggplants. I also manged a l0 foot row of Fortex pole beans. I have still more warm season things to go now I just need to wait for the 'warm' season. We have had two pretty cool days.
This morning wasn't promising for work but I did go out and feed the chicks, cleaned the nests and mowed the chicken yard and the west end of the garden area before the sprinkles arrived.
Inside
I cooked a pot of white beans and ham and made a small blackberry cobbler and tried a mincemeat tart instead of the turnovers. The tart is easier and just as tasty.

I love your new header picture!!!
ReplyDeleteI've learned that with the new blogger system, you have to resize your header picture like 75% to make it nicer for the header. Just play with the sizes until you get something you like.
The pictures of your desserts make my mouth water. I need to cook up a pot of beans and ham too and then add kale to the mix.
Have a great Friday and weekend ~ FlowerLady
There's that kale again! I didn't plant any. I need to give it another try.
DeleteYour header is great, your pies look too tasty. I planted two rows of Okra, can hardly wait to see them break ground.
ReplyDeleteI forgot to buy okra seed! I need t do that. I like Cajun Delight.
DeleteGlenda,
ReplyDeleteI like your header picture, pretty flowers.
Cobbler and pies, oh my!!!
The devil made me do it! (the pies.....)
DeleteBlackberry pie..?YUMMY...on my way!...:)JP
ReplyDeleteWish all of you lived where you could drop by!
DeleteI planted Fortex this year, too, I need to go out and see if they've come up. Have some Provider bush beans pre-sprouting, also Adzuki and Garbanzo. My canned Lazy Housewife beans were kind of stringy, could be they crossed with something because they aren't supposed to have strings.
ReplyDeleteI like both Fortex and Trail of Tears and a Romano type.
DeleteI cannot find any Fortex beans at local nurseries and refuse to buy 1 pack of seeds online and have shipping nearly triple the price! (Have any extras, Glenda?) I'm drooling over that blackberry cobbler!! I have Google blogger shrink my header to fit the size I determined. Love the new header pic - so lush.
ReplyDeleteKris I splurged and got a very small package from Amazon where I have Prime so get free shipping, but the seed price was outrageous. I will definitely save seeds from the vines this year.
