We made it to market on time and got set up with no one waiting on cakes.
The morning started out really slow but as the outside temperature warmed so did sales. Daughter and g-daughter IR came out to spend the day and help wait on customers. Hubbie left to get home and get some work done around the farm.
It is always nice to have daughter here so she and I can take turns with IR and the customers and she can go up town to get our lunch also. Today we got bagel sandwiches from McFarlands bakery and they were very good.
She left to go home and get something for #2 son and I left to pick up baking supplies and groceries at Aldi and Ingles on my way home.
When I got here hubbie was starting to dig our potatoes. We had a good year this year and have some very nice potatoes to show for it.
After we got unloaded and got things put away I went up to the garden to help with the potatoes. We got about half of them dug before it was chore time and were very happy with the amount of potatoes we are getting this year. We just planted the left overs from last year and some times that doesn't give such a good crop but this year we are very pleased with the amount so far with only half dug.
We did chores and then boiled some of the little potatoes along with some of our fresh greens from the garden to go with slaw hubbie had made from a cabbage a market vendor gave me Thursday , some pinto beans from the pressure pot and some grilled pork chops I brought home today.
Fixing dry beans in my pressure pot is one of my favorite things to use it for. I cooked 2 cups of dried pinto beans in 45 minutes and they were perfectly cooked.
We all ate our fill while this little girl bounced and bounced some more !!!!
This saying rings very true in the wake of some of the disrespect that has been shown the flag that these folks have fought so long and hard to save.
Thankful to live in this country and for all the blessings that God gives each day.
God Bless and Good Night.
