2. Make salsa!
Tomatillos, onions, peppers and garlic all from our garden.
grill 'em
30 seconds in the food processor with some salt, lime juice, black pepper and cilantro.
I tried to grow cilantro, but it failed to germinate. We have black pepper vine growing, but not producing yet. We have a lemon tree that's looking good so far (winter will be a challenge I think).
So, potentially, except for salt, this could all come from our garden. It was good.
Green tabasco peppers
add vinegar and peppercorns. Now I need a pot of pinto beans.
Nick made cookies
Our morning walk companions (neighbor's dogs)
Road kill
Want a puppy?
???
We bought some new targets
All ours except the taters, (we didn't plant any). Not pictured: these veggies were added to some venison taken about a mile from here. Cristina added some stuff and it became "caldereta". Sarap!
first day of school
Magic! (I got it stuck)
Daddy long-legs clump on the porch ceiling. Yerg! (shudder, run away)
haircut day
sunset over garden
improvised planters. These are the nose cones from the old satellite dishes
My new look
haircut mishap. the guard fell off the clippers. Cristina had to re-cut the whole thing. My hair is pretty short now.
"Ha-ha, you have a mohawk"
Tadpole hunting
tree clean up
Harvest and guard
waste
more waste. Many (most?) of the tomatoes are splitting. Probably too much water. We had nearly 10" in July. Lots of the tomatillos have rotted on the vine. Maybe same issue, I don't know.
Not wasted
