Winter is Back !
It was in the low 30's this morning when I went out to milk, with a blustery north wind that went right through you. Emery was bringing in more wood as I went about my morning work and how nice it was to have the house warm from the wood stove in just a short amount of time. Tonight we will have to cover a couple of the tender plants we put out, knowing it was a gamble of sorts as winter weather can return just as it is doing.
This afternoon, after working on some sewing projects and a bit of dish cloth crocheting, I went out to feed the kid and gather some food for tonight's supper. A big head of red cabbage, a bunch of fresh sweet carrots and some spinach. Beats buying food in the market any day. Fresh lettuce for my lunch salad freshly picked was a delight today too.
By next week, not only will the garden continue to bless us, but I will have the added joy of making cheese with the goats milk and savoring this feeling of satisfaction from all the hard work.

I sure wish I could harvest veggies from our garden this time of year!! I am planning to get my pepper plants started here in the next week though. Just growing something will help I bet.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
