The Long Journey ahead



Looking at the Monarch butterfly in our garden makes me very happy.  I purposely left some milkweeds in the garden for the butterflies to lay their offspring.  I was delighted when I found this one with wings still bent and feeling disoriented.  The Monarch also makes me ponder about change and how the cold nights are becoming a familiar feeling, how the preparation of garlic beds and the soon to be picked pumpkins and squash are the product of hard labor and dedication and how much I enjoy food preservation. 


Green zebra tomatoes
Great with salt, white wine vinegar and lemon juice 


Red cabbage 
I blanched some in boiling water, bagged them and froze them

Raspberries and Cucumbers
