The Crops are in ...

One of the best things about owning a little country home in the country is September means harvest time.

We are far from a true "harvest" but we grow lots enough for the two of us.

Last weekend we were able to supplement with the few items in our tiny bar fridge (yes, that is right still no fridge) enough vegetables from our garden to make it four days and not having to go into town to get groceries.



Terri loves a dish I made him - he lovinging refers to as spicy potatos - there is something special about eating his own potatos, with some of the hot chili peppers and onion.

Note to self - pick zucchini when small :).

Clancy always laughs that both Serge and I are Gemini's and how alike we are. It seemed we also have the same taste in art work. Man Rinaldo would become a Christmas present I would get that year. Me became the second piece of art work I owned.
