I think it should be an unwritten rule that at harvest time crunchy and/or green bloggers get a free pass from blogging because they are spending all of their time in the kitchen baking, canning, freezing, and otherwise preserving all of the yummy foods they’ve grown or purchased (hopefully locally) for the winter.
I’m sorry my blog is suffering lately, but the family and I have been a bit preoccupied doing things like this:
Climbing apple trees at Roger’s Grove
Picking and eating apples
Getting organic food from the co-op
Canning applesauce and dilly beans!
Taking a tractor ride to pick oodles of strawberries at Berry Patch Farms
Exploring the great outdoors at Boulder Creek
Trying to decide what I’m going to do with 60 pounds of Colorado peaches, pears and nectarines! (I still haven’t figured it all out!)
Visiting a honey harvest at Sandstone Ranch
OK, so I haven’t been completely locked in the kitchen. ;) We’ve also been spending quite a bit of time out in nature. The weather’s been gorgeous and its hard to stay indoors. Plus, the kids have so much fun exploring and honestly, I do too. :)
How’s your harvest season going this year? What are you putting up for the winter?
