WEEDS..........grrrrrrrrrrr!




Here I go again to cull the weeds in the herb gardens and the pation garden. As you can see in the photos, there is a lot of overdue work to due there. Most of it will be done today and finished up by tomorrow hopefully.


Tried some squash today for the sunday meal. It was very flavorful, but a little premature with the skins being a little chewy. But I mixed it with some of our Roma tomatoes, fresh Coriander and Basil and it was excellent. Probably be another few weeks before it is ready.


All the herbs are in flower mode, so the harvest and drying of those will be soon. I try to get enough to give to the neighbors and the wives in our social group for my multi spice seasoning mix. I dry Basil, Oregano, and Sage in a paperbag in th fridge. Then grind the dried herbs together in a Braun coffee mill. Put it in a shaker and it is perfect for Italian cooking, and time saving also.


Time to clean up the dinner dishes. Have a good one!
