The morning.\u00a0 More gazpacho.\u00a0 Another triple batch.\u00a0 This time Kate will can it.\u00a0 We had a blind taste test and found we liked the canned gazpacho even more than the fresh.\u00a0 Go figure.\u00a0 Making a large batch is not difficult, but it does consume time.\u00a0 A lot of steps. Cut. Mash. Pulse. (cuisinart)\u00a0 Dice.\u00a0 Blend.<\/p>\n
This afternoon.\u00a0 Kate wanted to see what we won on a scratch game card that came in the newspaper.\u00a0 So I called.\u00a0 The result was a canned patter by a nice young woman who wanted to sell us a $4,600 vacuum cleaner and air freshener!\u00a0 Geez.\u00a0 We stopped the pitch in mid-stride, she gathered up the Defender and the Majestic and walked out of house.\u00a0 Whooo.<\/p>\n
At 3 Paula Westmoreland and Lindsay Reban of Ecological Gardens came.\u00a0 They will develop a phased plan for us that will stretch out over 4-5 years.\u00a0 Their work has Permaculture as its basis, so they will help move our property further in the direction of sustainability.\u00a0 I plan to document the process on a companion website to AncienTrails.\u00a0 I have no name for it, but when I’m ready to get going, I’ll let you know.<\/p>\n
I liked Paula and Lindsay.\u00a0 They seemed like the kind of folks I understand.\u00a0 The first product from them will be an orchard plan, then a more comprehensive plan for projects spaced over time.\u00a0 It will be fun and will take our property into another zone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
