But then trying to eat homegrown/local foods is a choice I am making. For her it was not a choice but necessary survival. Our mothers were phenomenal, weren't they?<br /><br />btw,loved your garden photos. :)Sabrina Wille Ericksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14204840198185030162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-37387852330380984982010-07-22T13:55:04.386-07:002010-07-22T13:55:04.386-07:00Sabrina, it sounds like you are doing GREAT at uti...Sabrina, it sounds like you are doing GREAT at utilizing all your resources to eat local and healthy. As for putting up food, I don't do nearly as much as my mom did; I could do so much better....<br /><br />P.S. My Thursday Theme WAS yellow! The verbiage that came after was a distraction. ;-)Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-25457464757507436402010-07-22T13:27:05.502-07:002010-07-22T13:27:05.502-07:00It sounds so delicious Michelle.

I did get lots of rhubarb in the freezer though. And Clancy's potato patch is producing beautifully. Plus I traded a few loads of sheep manure to a lady who is giving us veggies from her organic garden. And I traded a butcher lamb this spring for all of my organic transplants.<br /><br />What's on my plate? Home grown carrots and green beans (frozen from last year) potatoes, and one left-over diced up t-bone steak (completely trimmed!) in the crockpot for supper. Add homegrown spices and a bit of rice flour and it should be a good stew. <br /><br />I'm afraid we are carnivors here. After the gluten, soy, dairy, corn, and millet, plus their derivitives are subtracted...I'm quite grateful to be able to eat meat. But we raise or hunt it ourselves or purchase from local farmers.<br /><br />Enjoy your meal! :)<br />ps: your Thursday Theme could have also been "yellow" ;)Sabrina Wille Ericksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14204840198185030162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-85047093481879458082010-07-22T12:20:49.671-07:002010-07-22T12:20:49.671-07:00YUM, Becky - well, except for the roast beef. ;-)YUM, Becky - well, except for the roast beef. ;-)Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-39879145504614191562010-07-22T09:56:28.058-07:002010-07-22T09:56:28.058-07:00Right now?
