Monday, Monday
Things to do places to go – Post office to ship out a couple packages, the Gym to get some exercise, the store to buy some salad fixins to go with the BBQ tri tip for dinner.
What to do with the apples? – I’ve dried and made apple sauce. I’m thinking apple pies. I have this great recipe where you make the crust and fill with apples and other filling ingredients then partially bake and freeze. Almost instant apple pie during the winter.
Clean up garden – Time to get rid of all those bent over sunflowers and pumpkin plants. The DH has a week off in October and he will be in charge of ‘dressing’ the beds for winter. One of our local lumber mills has this great product called Dirty Finds. It is a mixture of soil washed off the trees before milling, composted crab shells and yard clippings. It sits in a big pile for 6 weeks and is beautiful, fresh soil for the garden.
Cut back yard – after the pond self draining and spending a day cleaning it out I see the yard needs to be cut back for winter.
Package dye club – The yarn is dyed, I’ve received the stitch markers from Hide and Sheep, now all I have to do is package.
Laundry – The never ending evil.
