Frost tonight
Saturday, September 16, 2006
The weather man says it will be 39, and we have learned to subtract five or ten degrees. We live in an old river bed, and frost settles here. The wind is howling and it's in the 40's. The garden is keeping my sweet husband busy! So far he has brought in bushels of tomatoes, eggplant, corn, plums, pears, squashes and Snack Jack pumpkins (yummy hulless seeds). Now he's aiming for the basil. I still haven't frozen pesto, and we really love it. We have finally finished juicing apples! The lovely, rose-colored juice is sealed in jars. We did tomatoes yesterday. Tomorrow it will be pesto before church and probably salsa verde after church. I think the Good Lord understands. The garden has been amazingly productive this year!
