Spoke too soon!

Remember that promise I made? Well, I may have to revise it and do it on a weekly basis. Too many other things to do! I always have to ensure I have a meal and clean clothes and that the plants and animals are taken care of.

I didn't sleep hardly at all the other night so that really put me behind. I have no idea why that happens but thank goodness it doesn't happen often! We were supposed to get storms so yesterday I went out to the highway to get the car filled up and then I had to go to the bank as I am putting my daughter on my bank account in case I would get sick she could make out my bills for me. I also got out and harvested herbs and plants for dyeing............rosemary which is drying out on the porch and then will get put in jars...

sage which gets frozen on cookie sheets and then put in freezer bags

Thyme which just gets put in a bag and frozen.....

a few acorns but I read you need to "cook" them to kill the weevils inside of them so I will hold off until I have enough to make it worthwhile...........these are burr oak acorns

Goldenrod for dyeing gets frozen.....and there are marigolds too but they are big and beautiful right now so I don't want to pick them just yet

It did storm today and there is more coming tonight and tomorrow too....Fall in the Ozarks! So cozy!

I made lemon pasta this afternoon...........an Ina Garten recipe.....I'll let you know how I like it.....mostly butter and lemon so it should be wonderful!

I'm making some dough for English Breakfast Biscuits but they won't get baked until tomorrow.

I've been working on my Fall Alphabet Sampler...........
