Update: Garden and more
 
The flowers I planted yesterday bounced back (yay!). I definitely have several veggie plants growing well and we are dehydrating a bunch of bananas. Hopefully the old Nesco dehydrator works well.
 
It's almost 90F here - ugh. Everyone is lying around and not moving much. I empathize 
 
I had to run to Walmart for lemon juice. Sticker shock for the day: $28.50 for 8 lbs of chicken wings.

Freezing, Cooking, Growing - Supplies ordered or bought

  We picked up a second small Hotpoint chest freezer. With the prices going bananas we can definitely use it - we feed Grady (our oldest) chicken breast and liver, that takes up a lot of room very quickly in a freezer. Add in frozen veggies and pizzas..... All the Home Depots near us were out of the 5 to 6.5 sq cubic feet freezers but we found one at Lowe's that was actually $20 cheaper. We have a new stockpot on the way along with some 5 gallon buckets to grow potatoes, onions and whatever in. We also plan on cooking large batches of food and freezing along with starting canning. Gas is nearly $4 a gallon here. We're real happy with the government right now <sarcasm alert>

  first day of real heat and I'm out there planting stuff....    I bought some very lovely yellow squash and zucchini plants in case the critters totally took out my seeds that I had planted. We'll see what comes up!  I saw the healthy, beautiful squash and zucchini at the feed store and couldn't resist   The potatoes are doing great as are most of the marigolds, the coleus, garlic, rosemary, catnip and English thyme. I might have some aster flowers coming up! Yay!   I'm grubby and my clothes look like I've been actually planting. So, off to a shower!
