Cheesecake Maven in Iowa: September 2011
http://cheesecakemaven.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Cheesecake Maven in Iowa. Another day, another cheesecake . . . Sunday, September 11, 2011. So far, I've canned about 20 pints of tomatoes, 20 quarts of hot cucumber pickles, and 15 pints of Fireballs (pickled hot green tomatoes! I've also put about 12 loaves of zucchini bread in the freezer.). We harvested about 100 bulbs of garlic earlier this summer, and used quite a few of them in the above mentioned pickles, along with our red hot peppers and some Joe's Long cayenne pepper.

http://cheesecakemaven.blogspot.com/2011/07/garlic-harvest.html
Cheesecake Maven in Iowa. Another day, another cheesecake . . . Monday, July 18, 2011. The tomato plants have become jungle-like, I keep expecting to find a lost dog or cat hidden within their tangled stems and leaves. The soil in the garlic bed was teaming with worms, every square inch I swear! Be sure to check out our summer blog - http:/ summerabcs.blogspot.com/. Deer recently ate one of my potted plants. I hate them! How are you going to store all that garlic? Is CRV going to dig a root cellar? Figs,...

Cheesecake Maven in Iowa. Another day, another cheesecake . . . Sunday, April 5, 2009. Spring in the Great Midwest. Could make a pretty bad mess in the catch bag, but what if I didn't use the catch bag? Great fertilizer for that area of the yard . . . hmmmmmm. I'm whistling the tune - can you hear it? Glad I didn't step in the cat when I was there. I'm finding popsicle wrappers from last summer. April 5, 2009 at 8:31 PM. April 6, 2009 at 6:53 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Here's to all of those great women - and to all the great women in my life now! I would never have bought anything...

Worked out in the yard all day today (and yesterday), feels so good to be out there again! The creeping Charlie is doing well, as are the dandelions.

It has been lovely lately, hasn't it? He had no ide...
