Turkeys

Last night Harold and I went grocery shopping. We left the kids at home. We did get some rain, but not to much. Boise got over an inch of snow.

Today we got up late. I was getting ready to fix breakfast when Josh reminded us that we had to take the turkeys in today to be butchered. The place is only a couple of miles from us, so it isn't to far to take them in. When we got home, Harold and I ate breakfast. The kids had eaten already.

I did a couple of loads of laundry today. We hung one load up outside to dry in the wind. The other is hung up in the living room. I have a clothesline from one side of the room to the other side. I then hang my clothes on hangers on the clothesline. The heat from the wood stove gets them dry. I don't mind having them in my living room as long as they don't hang there to long. I haven't used my dryer for 4 or 5 years. In fact, we moved it out to the barn last year.

Supper tonight is chicken noodle soup. I cooked an old layer hen in the crockpot yesterday. I heated that up today and then added carrots, celery, onions, and noodles. We will have Jalepeno cheese bread and whole wheat rolls to go along with it.

Harold got the door for the wood cook stove done today. It looks good. He worked on a cap for the chimney. Every time that it rained, the water would come down the pipe and get everything wet. We still have a little piece of pipe to put in before we can use it. I worked on grape juice today. I am juicing the green grapes, and they don't seem to be as juicy as the concord grapes.
