Another day in paradise

Well, at least I know I will soon be on the mend. Had to go to the doc again as I was not getting any better, in fact was worse, to find I have a sinus infection - with no sinus headache or any of the usual symptoms I have experienced in the past when I had one of these "lovely things". So, it's the 'Z pac' for me!
Am still watering garden as we have had no rain in a while and most everything is still going & going. I pulled the dry beans and hung them to dry so I can thresh them out. The second crop of 'spuds' are dying down so we'll dig them soon. The onions are starting to fall over so it'll be time to get them out, too. Then there's those beets, the carrots, the tomatoes, the kale...........................
I shall be busy this weekend!
We're getting 1-3 eggs each day now - I shall have to freeze some of them, too as we just don't eat that many! But in the winter it will be nice not to have to buy them. Yes, you can't have anything but scrambled to eat, but for baking who cares - and I love scrambled eggs anyway & they will be "our eggs"!
I've even got some late raspberries that may have time to get ripe if it doesn't go back to regular autumn weather to soon.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmm love that homestead!

Hope you are soon feeling better.

We are still watering at our homestead, too, but I have very little producing. I think it's mostly over. When the days get shorter, the garden seems to know what's coming regardless of the temperature.
