We did get rain and I do feel like I've turned the corner. I never felt real sick from the allergies - just worn down and tired (and really annoyed), lol.

You are on it this morning! Low blood sugar alert popped my eyes open this morning. DH sleeps through all alarms....sigh. Got him squared away and working on the first cup here. DH has a big dental appt later this morning. Better him than me! :hide

Still picking collards - so... Tossed some in a broth made with a smoked turkey wing, some chicken broth, lotsa garlic and some onion. The big question is: Cornbread or no cornbread? Guess it'll depend on DH's blood sugar... :fl

I need some lessons in puttering!

I can tell a difference. Who thought beans could be so cool looking!?

Salad with rib-eye steak strips on top. Oh my, my! So good!

Me too!

I've had a similar sauce and it was delicious!

Good for you!

Got started early this morning. I bought 5 pineapples on sale the other day for .99. I dehydrated two, made jam out of one, and canned the other two in a light syrup this morning. I got 8 1/2 pints and 5 pints of pineapple tidbits. Tempted to go back and get more at that price. Maybe...

Woo Hoo! I have seeds in the ground. Only corn so far, but the rest will happen as soon as I can get to it. Hopefully before the rain that's promised for today.

Still battling allergies. Seems to have settled in my chest with lots of coughing going on now. I do not like it. I have too much to do to be down for any reason. This week has been a marathon of medical appts for DH. Two more for next week and still have to reschedule one that was...

Coffee - life saver this morning. I've been fighting this allergy mess for a week now and I'm quite tired of it. Work doesn't stop just because I'm coughing, sneezing and blowing my nose constantly. Those jump starters are a life-saver for sure! I've been investing in tools lately. After...

That is a nice 'problem' to have!
