It's weaning time ...Time for the Babies to leave the Mommas alone.... and man are they vocal about it!!!
Meet!! The Crooners!
Toby is still rather shy, but when he bellows.... you all know it!!
And Reba... the red head... I figure if Johnny Cash could sing about a Boy Named Sue - I could have Steer named Reba!! But Reba fits right? The Beautiful Red head??
K's garden has been going nuts, Tomato's, Zucchini, Cucumbers, Butternut Squash, Grapes, more Tomatoes, Onions, carrots, beets, and I am sure I am forgetting something. The Apple Trees are Producing - I am canning and preserving - and! I ran out of jars!!
Have you watched *Back to the Frontier* I believe it is on HBO/Max streaming - but it is three families who go back in time to the 1880's and try to homestead. They are learning how much food they need in their pantries to make it thru the winter.
And!! Did you know that Pressure Canners weren't invented until the 1900's ( I googled) so they have to brine and prep foods other ways. AND!! They don't have refrigerators/Freezers... you all...
1. You noticed I googled
2. NO Freezers?
I am not sure I would have survived... but then I looked at my pantry and what I have canned so far - some weeks might be have very few choices of what to eat. Did they have Pizza Delivery??
( well we don't have that either - too far away from town, but! I can at least pick one up if need be)
I am still happy with the fact that I am keeping up with his garden, Canning, Freezing, and more Canning ;-)
