My garlic didn't get big but the smell today was amazing!! I believe I'm going to dry most of it to make my own garlic powder and will try again for next year!

If you are local to me and love pasta then you need to experience theirs! The smell alone while cooking let me know this was going to rock and it's not easily describable especially when paired with sauce I helped can. I know there are many varieties and they can be found at local farmers markets so head on over to The Kilted Farmers to learn more.

Yesterday was spent walking down memory lane, wishing some things could change, cherishing the good, and daily life tasks. I managed seven pints of carrots that all sealed. Next year I may try smaller jars as these are easily going to be 2+ serving size for me. The worms will get the scraps in the next batch of wormcakes. I also condensed the two original boxes and the two boxes of cocoons down to one box. This was moved to the basement where the "condo" is. No I am not worried about my QA Manager messing with it or using it for a litter box.

Next year will involve hoops and netting in the carrot bed! This is the biggest one so far due to all the greens being treated like an all you can eat salad bar. They loved the hollyhocks and a few other flowers as well, UGH

Feels good to be back home!! I went to Chicago for a few days for an early birthday gift. My eldest got me tickets for Megadeth and Iron Maiden. One of the first things I did when I got home was walk the jungle as raspberries needed picking and I found an onion that was ready. I grew that from a sprouted one. Neat experiment but not one I'm likely to repeat. Out of about 30 planted this was the only survivor!

I have one more crazy busy week and after that will get the worms set up on social media. The 18th I ended my first breeder bin experiment three days early and am just WOW at what I consider a success at 170 cocoons from 95 worms. I condensed them in with the 2nd bin I had started and reset its time. Today I started looking for a new batch of mature worms and found 35. I also took three bags of scraps from the freezer, let it defrost, blended bigger chunks, and to that I added coffee grounds egg shells, and dehydrated pre-compost to yield 48 wormcakes!! They absoforkinloutely love 'em

Seven successful TINKS and that takes me to 43 pints in the pantry.

Yesterday it once again rained off and on all day. Luckily I had packed my muck boots in case we had please wait to have kids birth during my recent house sitting adventure. When I passed off the baton all the goaties were still preggers, YAY!! We got the raspberries and green beans caught up as well. Wouldn't know I picked two days ago!! Nothing I had planned to dismantle got started as the brief non-rain moments were spent harvesting. Have a grandchild for the weekend and while they got settled I caught my raspberry patch up. My tiny bucket was perfect!! I'm excited by the harvest so far as the patch isn't that big, yet.
