Yes, the madness has officially began on the farm. The first 2 days have been typical with the window unit going out in the office on Sunday and then on Tuesday the rear-end in the truck went out on Bill as he was on his way to Thomasville to pick up some stickers that we have to put on all of the produce !! Had to call a wrecker to pick them up and bring them home!
Kylie & I cooked lunch for Winston, Cole & Bill today. We made taco salad. She got out some of my Tupperware, placed it on the counter and insisted that we take her "empty" containers also!
A few years ago, a widowed neighbor, who is a dear friend of mine, gave me some jelly. It was so good & I had never had any like it before. I asked her what kind it was & she said...rosea. I had never heard of rosea before! She told me she had some bushes planted. I told her to call me when she got ready to make some more, because I wanted some & I wanted to see what rosea looked like! She called last week & told me the rosea bushes were ready. I went one afternoon, but the blooms were closed up. I snapped a few pictures of the rosea & went back the next morning to catch the blooms open. She told me that you actually pick the fruit, peel the purple part off, boil those & the inside green part...you can let dry & plant it. Pretty neat. I bought the sugar & some more jars so she could put me some off. We kind of trade off some produce & such.
Thank-you Ms. Wilma
