October Round-Up

My title sounds like a cowgirl post . . .

but no it's a "rounding-up" all the 

 end of the year

outdoor projects and getting them done :)

 The main garden and all the boxes 

are cleaned out and ready for 

a long winters nap.

 In cleaning them out,

I came across the last of our harvest.

Sunflowers to feed the birds.

Carrots to feed us :)

 Peppers

 Peppers

 And more peppers.

We dry these and then grind them

up into spices.

Chives drying

These will be great on baked potatoes,

in spaghetti sauce, in omelets and more :)

I took the last of my zuccinni 

and baked more bread for the freezer.

Oh, and one loaf for now, LOL, YUM!

I have two gallons of cucumbers picked

and will be making more 

Bread & Butter pickles. 

I took a little time to redo 

the mantle and give it an 

Autumn Glow :)

Then baked a Beef Pot Pie

for Friday evening's dinner.

I enjoyed being outside this week.

October is such a lovely month,

crisp mornings and sunny afternoons.

I hope you enjoyed your visit

&

that you'll leave a comment

so that I know you popped in to 

say "Hell-O" 

 Keeping Smiling!

Your blogging sisiter,

Connie :)
