Heritage Acres Farm

Wonderfully Productive

This weekend was wonderful... wonderfully productive... and I L.O.V.E. being productive! :)
 We cleaned out the root cellar, we hope to add shelves in the next week or two.  We spent some time in the garden.  I spent some time in the kitchen, and we all just spent some time together... The weather was not as dreadfully hot as it has been and it was nice.  We enjoyed a bit of rain today and hope to get more in the next day or so.
 Saturday, I made up some homemade vanilla, some Lacto-Fermented Salsa, I chopped up peppers and have them in the freezer and Saturdays lunch was a wonderful soup and some crusty bread.  I plan on sharing the directions for the above throughout the week.
 I have spent a little time in the sewing room also and the bug has bitten me.  I am anxious to get some projects going and accomplished... Christmas is NOT too far away you know!!!  Especially for those of us who like to give handmade gifts!!!!  So it is a good thing I am in the mood to start crafting.
I hope your Monday is fantastic!
