not much to report!
We are in that time of year when we are almost really, really busy and so are trying to get on top of our game before the bust days hit. I am trying to get through the last of our schoolwork with the children, cleaning out cupboards and freezers to make way for summer's bounty, and getting water samples in to Water Lab for testing. The farmer picked up lumber for the hoop house yesterday, once they are constructed it will be almost time to transplant the little vegetable starts. There is snow in the forecast for tomorrow, and as much as I like snow, I am really hoping this one does not actually happen. I am ready for sunshine and warm weather, not snow and bone-chilling cold! Where was the snow I wanted at Christmas time? The three littlest children have been playing outside a lot, and I have a nice line up of muddy boots in the garage! Love Stuarts tiny little blue boots lined up amidst Evangeline and Estelle's pretty pink boots!

We just picked our first ripe tomato and I discovered three little cucumbers yesterday. I will be doing paperwork this weekend and after that I think it's time to start rounding up canning jars. It will be so nice to have them filled in the pantry!
ReplyDeleteYour first ripe tomato??? Wow! It will be another five months before I can tomatoes. Canning will begin with strawberry jam in June, so I even have a few months before I need to round up jars. Enjoy your lovely fresh tomatoes!
ReplyDeleteEvangeline, Estelle, Stuart... I love these names! What are the other two?

Thank you! There are actually three more, and they are Graham, Ella, and Robert. Three of each!
