I've been busy so I haven't had time to blog but here are some pictures from this week.

This is what I did on Monday:

DH shot 2 more deer on Sat. morning (9/6).  On Sunday we went to the house of a family from church where we had lunch & then the men folk grounded all the deer into burger.  We got 38 1/2 lbs. of deer burger sitting in our freezer for the winter.

That same family from church sent us home with 4 boxes of tomatoes.  So Tuesday-Friday I did some canning.  I got 27 pints of salsa made & 24 quarts of tomatoes.  Enough to last us for awhile.

Saturday evening we had an auction at our church.  The proceeds go towards our building fund.  We built on a new gymnasium, a kitchen, & some classrooms so now we need to pay for it!

Here are some pictures of the auction:

(That's the new gym!)

And I will leave you with a new recipe. 

Zucchini Pie

• 3 c. sliced zucchini
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 1/2 c. parmesan cheese
• 1/2 c. shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2 c. canola oil
• 1 c. Bisquick
• 4 eggs, beaten
• 3 T. dried parsley
• 1/2 t. salt
• 1/2 t. pepper

1. Mix all ingredients together until everything is coated.  Pour into a greased 9 or 10 inch pie pan. 
2. Bake at 350* for about 30-40 minutes, until golden brown and done.

This recipe came from a lady at our church.  She is known to be a really good cook.  She brought this to our sewing earlier this month.  She said it came from her town's newspaper and she thought she would give it a try.  It was delicious!  So I had to get it from her.  I made this for breakfast on Saturday along with some sausage links.

I don't buy Bisquick so I had to search the web for a recipe to make the zucchini pie. 

Here is that recipe:

Homemade Bisquick Mix

• 6 c. all-purpose flour
• 3 T. baking powder
• 1 T. salt
• 1 c. vegetable shortening (I used oil. It worked well!)

1. Sift flour, baking powder and salt three times into a large bowl.  *I skipped the sifting!
2. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender until mixture resembles fine crumbs.
3. Store mixture in airtight container in the refrigerator up to 4 months.
4. Use whenever your recipe calls for "Bisquick mix".

Makes 7 cups.

Okay, that's it for last week.  We will be starting school tomorrow.  Well...I will be starting school with my youngest tomorrow.  My oldest started last Monday.  I was going to start school with my youngest last Monday but the deer & tomatoes needed to be done first.
