Garlic and stuff

I suppose I should get better about updating the life happenings around here. First off Jacob's eye is better, every now and then it still feels like he has something in it, but at least the pink eye is gone! Kai's foot injury is getting better (not sure if I mentioned that). But now one of our chickens is lame. One of "the twins" (for the life of me I can't tell two apart) won't walk much on her left leg, she's still getting around ok but I must keep an eye on her.

The huckleberries were a total bust this year. No snow pack will do that to them, all I can say is, sucks! But the vacation was great.

The garden is starting to produce FOOD! I am drowning in beans and zucchini. I have blanched and frozen some zucch's and canned some green beans. Today I am working on canning more that I got in bulk from the farmers market. Our tomatoes are coming on strong. I have a feeling they will all ripen at once and make me entirely busy for day's. Oh sigh over garden complaints, truly we will be rich in a sea of red this year!

I braided the soft neck garlic yesterday and bunched the hard-necks. A beautiful sight! Much of the hard-neck varieties are being given away as gifts.

Tomorrow we are off to our Tumbleweed Tiny House workshop in Portland. Which should be awesome  and entirely weird since we are leaving here in the morning flying to P-town and flying back all in one day.
