Are you tired of hearing about ~ * ~ Garlic ~ * ~ yet ? It seems like I've been waiting for this moment forever , so I'm excited about this harvest. I love cooking with garlic , I used my fresh garlic from the first harvest Monday night when I made a chicken & broccoli stir fry. It tasted so fresh and wonderful.
My Hubby , Mom ( pictured above ) and I finished digging it up late yesterday afternoon. My Mom and I tied it into bundles and hung it up in what is , going to be the chicken coop to dry out. It'll take about a month to dry , then we will take it down , cut the stems off , clean it and store it. I plan to save the largest cloves , to plant in the Fall.
The squash are starting to produce , should be eating some this weekend. It's getting dry here again , praying we get rain this week.
It's been to HOT to work on the chicken coop , so it's been a slow project. I may have to wait to next year for chickens unless the weather gets cooler and hubby gets in gear (LOL).
On a serious note , PLEASE PRAY for Judie , http://littleartroom.blogspot.com/ , she lost her daughter in an accident last month. You're in my thoughts and prayers each day Judie.
Peggy over at , http://hiddenhavenhomestead.blogspot.com/ is also suffering a loss . Please say a Prayer for her., you're in my thoughts and prayers too , Peggy.
~ Blessings and Love to Judie & Peggy ~ JoyceAnn
