More Farm Blogging

The pigs seem to be enjoying their new home.  They already have a giant mud hole.

I did the animal and garden chores while Tom worked on building a roof for the trailer that had a tree fall a while ago, and its roof is slowly deteriorating.

This afternoon I picked our golden egg plums and our peaches.  We had pruned them quite a lot on pruning day so I wasn’t expecting much.  But both trees made more than I expected and bigger fruit than usual.

Interestingly we heard the song Peaches “Movin’ to the country, Gonna eat a lot of peaches” just yesterday.  And now we are going to be eating a lot of peaches.

Then I picked the last of the blueberries.  We had a banner year for blueberries.

For dinner we had carnitas, and I made a fruit salad on the side.  It was all really great.

    The carnival sound delicious! I looked at the recipe we can’t use citrus, because my # 1 daughter is allergic to all of It.

    Can you tell which pig is which?

      They were delicious. That is sad that you can’t use citrus. I can tell the pigs apart, mostly by their genders, sizes and tail curls. They are starting to show more personality differences as well.

    P.S. I should have read my comment. I was doing that on my Kindle tablet, and it does love to spell words whatever way it wants to do! I had meant to say that the carnitas sound really tasty, but that silly tablet put in carnival instead! I didn’t know it until much later.

    those plums look so yummy 🙂 we ad a really good year for blueberries as well. I think that the rain in late July really helped.
