A Cabbage, A Squash, and Bulbils in the Making

It's another cool, breezy evening (15 degrees at ~8:00pm).  Daytime highs for the coming week are forecast to be below 20 degrees. 

A few pictures from this past weekend...

Beans and nasturtiums

 

Cour di Bue cabbage

 

I might get an 'Early Prolific' summer squash yet!

 

Carrot greens

 

Garlic bulbils in the making (Northern Quebec, Red Russian, and Baba Franchuk's).

 

A snoozing bee...

 

...and a snoozing Lou. 

 

I've processed enough crabbaples to get about 30 cups of juice, enough for 6 batches of crabapple jelly.  There are still plenty of crabapples left on the tree, so I'll offer them to anyone who wishes to pick!  I made a batch of jelly yesterday, will make a batch tomorrow, and have frozen the rest of the juice for future use.

 


Off to make a hot chocolate.  Maybe with a splash of something special.  Mwua hahaha!  Not your typical summertime drink, but then, this hasn't been your typical summer. 

G'night!  :-)
