Today was 22 pints of beets – all plain.   Lemon juice or ? can be added at time of using.   There were also enough green beans for another 4 pints.  Then I picked parsley and basil.    I’m happy that the garden has produced so much food.     And I did try to take a short nap after lunch, but had 3 phone calls come in, so gave that up.   How do people know these things?

    Pretty yarn! What pattern are you using for your socks? I am waiting for Remlingers to get peaches…..

    I like the color of your yarn too. You sound very busy with all that canning. It’s nice to get so much from your garden.

    Nice socks they look beet colored. The grasshoppers have eaten my garden.

      Thank you – I’m so sorry about your garden. It’s so discouraging to do all the work to feed insects.
      You must be in Texas. Is there anything you can do = like a hoop house to protect your garden?
