This summer, Mike built us the most awesome bird feeder, and hung it right outside our bedroom window. The birds absolutely love it. Sometimes there have been as many as 7 birds there at a time. This picture has 5, with one in the bush.
The hummingbirds LOVE the purple flowers.
They also love the hummingbird feeder right outside our kitchen window.
There are often, 2 eating from here at a time.
Our garden box has done well.
We had peas in the early summer, and have been loving all the tiny tomatoes.
Our big ones should be ripening soon too.
We've had lots of yellow crookneck squash, It is delicious in salads or stir fried.
Our green onions did great and we are waiting for our yellow and red peppers to ripen.
Our apple tree has gone crazy this year. There are lots of apples.
I've been having fun turning them into yummy treats!
I made apple crisp, apple bread and apple pie.
I'd forgotten how much fun it was to make applesauce.
Krista used to have apple trees and we would make apple sauce every year.
I love this Victorio strainer! You put the cooked apples, peel, core and all, into the top
and out the bottom comes applesauce and all the yucky stuff is in the bag. It's amazing!
Then, just pour it into your jar. So fun!
I made DELICIOUS apple turnovers with my activity day boys.
