So far, I've put 4 qts of yellow squash/zucchini slices and 6 qts of grated in the freezer. Jim picked all he's going to off the yellow summer apple tree and we put six very big gallon bags of slices in the freezer. I've been picking up the windfalls for the chickens and to keep the bugs away for future years. We have no rain, but wind and the rest of the apple are so ripe, they are falling.
Yesterday I made beet pickles out of half the small row of beets, and got 4 1/2 qts. We also did our first batch of corn. Jim picked 15 dozen, after eating 8 ears for supper, the rest made 31 qts. Fifteen of which went to Lorene's family. Lorene was here for a steak supper, and I made green bean casserole and funeral potatoes, and cucumber salad, and deviled eggs. Zane cut the watermelon and filled the eggs and sprinkled paprika with a heavy hand. They had planned to eat steak a couple of days ago, and other supper plans happened.
