Sunday Morning....On the Farm...
Usually off to church and home by now...but today it is a lazy Sunday morning. Seahawks are now on for their first season game and coffee is brewing!
The morning started with Addie crawling into bed and waking me up...crawled right over the top and into the blankets next to me...pulling them up tight under her chin. Ah the moments.
Soon there after we were off to the garden, Addie and I to collect whatever we could find.
Looking for tomatoes to add to the ones we have been saving so we can start the canning process...going to try to roast them today and then can them. We will see how it goes. Farming, gardening, canning all trial and error in my opinion.
After collecting tomatoes and pulling a few weeds we came across where the mole had been and realized that we would be picking a cantaloupe and trying it this morning since the mole had already had a sample of it. Yummy it was tasty, definitely would of been better in a few months...but that was not going to happen so we enjoyed it as it was.
Feeding the weeds to the chickens we collected a handful of eggs and headed in with our goods.
Time to start canning as our chicken cooks in the crock pot...the rooster to be exact. He decided to attack Addie Friday morning and Toby heard all the ruckus and after realizing what had happened...well that was the end of the head of our flock. I quickly You Tubed how to butcher a chicken and well he is now in the crock pot. And I can now say that I have butchered a chicken. A first for everything right?!?!
