It's supposed to get down to only a couple of degrees above freezing tonight, so I pulled my tomatoes. From 6 plants I got two full boxes of tomatoes- a lot more than I expected. A friend gave me a recipe of her great grandma's for green tomato mincemeat, so I'm going to try that. Anyone have a favourite green tomato recipe they want to share? I'll let the bigger ones ripen, and maybe can some of them and make salsa.
We are hosting a consignment auction here on the 23rd. We are getting some really nice stuff- antiques, furniture, boats, a pump organ, a piano, - oodles of stuff! should be a really good auction.
It doesn't look like I'm going to get to go hunting this year, elk season ends on the 20th and I just don't have time with helping out with the auction and trying to find time to work Chickory. I hope to haul her to the arena tomorrow.
I'm really enjoying my job, the hours are perfect, and the job is just challenging enough to keep me hopping. I was asked if I would help out again at the Therapeutic Riding center, so I'll probably drop down there in the next day or so to help out.
Beamer and Url are getting along just fine, Url now likes to have his head scratched, and moos at me as soon as I come out of the house in the morning- he knows who brings the wheelbarrow full of hay! Beamer bosses him around a little, but I've seen them sharing the shelter and eating out of the same hay pile.
Well, g'night all busy day tomorrow!

Oh, but I love this photo!! It's perfect for a night that's going to drop down to near freezing!From only two plants 6 boxes of tomatoes! That must be some sort of record! What will you make with them, I wonder? Stuffed tomatoes Greek style might be perfect after a hard days work! Food for the soul!

Ann, it was 6 plants and 2 boxes! LOL! Fried green tomatoes for super tonight.
Beautiful photo..
I'd love to be at that consignment auction. Sounds like great stuff.
You can always hunt next year-gosh, year after year just seems to fly by, eh? I'd love to get an elk, my husband has, but I have not, and I think it's be great! :)
Great Sunset, are you going to put up any pics of auction stuff?
That's a great picture! It's a busy time of year that's for sure.
Sounds like you're a busy bee. I love fried green tomatoes but I don't have a recipe. The best ones I ever ate were at a restaurant in Charleston, SC. Yummo!!
My husband told me the other day we needed to go see some of my Canadian friends so he could go elk hunting!
Kit, my friends at Anchor D Outfitting- there is a link on my blog- do guided hunts, they are great people; it's where Ted and I got married on horseback.Dewy is a very good guide, and has a really good success rate. And the country they hunt in will take your breath away!
