I am a Mom, of boys...boys who eat me out of house and home, and we haven't
even hit junior or high school yet...yes I am a Mom of a 6 ½ , 5 and 2 year
old.
To help combat their hunger and hopefully save a little bit of money and
still provide them with the best and freshest ingredients we have a garden...or
two. One here at the house and one at our local community garden.
Of course
with my baking business unless I take time off it's rare to find a week of down
time...and wouldn't you know that my garden is ready for me to can, freeze and
pickle so many wonderful things...RIGHT NOW!
So this week I am trying to
balance my orders and my garden. So I'm keeping busy, I've blanched and frozen
my broccoli and my husband will work on beans while I work on a birthday cake
tonight, and over the next week we'll have to tackle the beets that can't be
ignored any more.
I know before too long it will be the cucumbers turn, and
don't get me started on the tomatoes which usually run into applesauce
season. At least I know what I’m putting
into my kid’s body.
Happy Gardening!
