OK, Let's Try That Again.

I am going to try this blogg'in thing again on a more leisurely schedule, one a month or so. I was going at it there for a while with two or three post a week and just burned out. It is hard to come up with new topics constantly since homestead life tends to redo the same basic things each year. I choose the pic for this week cause pie is what's for breakfast today! Fresh baked wild blueberry pie to be exact.
  We did a short road trip north to the shore of Lake Superior this past weekend for some berry picking. This is turning into the best berry year I have seen for a while. The trip was very relaxed and laid back so we did not pick nearly as many berries as we could have but it was a great weekend. We will probably make another serious berry picking run this coming week and stock up on these blue beauties while we can. We also managed to pick a few quarts of nice Juneberries while there. The Juneberry crop near us was a fail this year. Nanny berries look good right now as do the hazelnuts. Our gardens are looking good,especially all the cabbage,broccoli, kohlrabi,and even those little green balls of death, brussels spouts.My new horseradish planting seems to really be taking off and the herb section has produced great.
  I will be getting some current photos uploaded soon and then I think I will revisit some of the more popular post and do a update on those.
