Spring

Spring
The beautiful weather has given us a head start. Let's hope Jack Frost doesn't pay us a visit.

Tea Time

Steve and I make our own tea these days. Right now we make it with fresh lemon balm and mint, but we are going to experiment with drying the leaves for winter. We are going to experiment with different herbs to see what different combinations taste the best.
We have been harvesting bush beans like mad. Plus our cherry tomatoes feel like they are all ripening at once. We are also having a bumper crop of ground cherries. As predicted Gracie eats them before anything can be done with them. We bought a ten pound box of blueberries as ours will not be ready until next year. We have made blueberry and blueberry peach jam. Very good. Next up will be spaghetti sauce and salsa. Can't wait.
