Gabble's Garden

Who else loves hot peppered vinegar? Growing up I wasn’t so much of a fan but over the years my palate has been transformed by my husband’s love for spice. Now I love it!

Taking the remaining jalapeños and banana peppers from the garden, I cleaned them, sliced them and placed in sterilized bottle. I boiled raw, organic apple cider vinegar (with the “mother”) and a tsp of salt and poured over the peppers to soak. After two weeks it will be ready to be enjoyed. I leave the peppers in as the taste becomes even better over time.

So, is this just a southern thing?

Winter can be so UNCOMFORTABLE for you AND your birds! How many times have you had to deal with frozen water and dealing with that in sub-zero temps is a bo**er!

A heated base is one of the best things you can do to prepare for winter. Matter of fact, I wouldn’t even consider NOT having one! Game changer!

Can I answer any questions for you?

For THREE days I worked on these cookies—baking them from scratch, rolling them out, baking and then carefully decorating every detail. These were made for neighbors and a party, too. I wanted to offer a word of encouragement and just say hello BUT I began coming down with something on the third day in so I didn’t share the cookies due to concern I could have something contagious. It felt like quite a waste and very discouraging ! Oh well….

Feeling a little silly on this dreary, drippy, damp Monday.

Ahhh, that glorious few moments of wearing your new turd-free boots! It lasts but a moment and then it is all down hill from there!

The strangest birds showed up at the birdfeeder today…

I didn’t realize how much my body needed electrolyte replacement until I started drinking it. Undoubtedly, I can say that I feel better when consuming.

What an EPIC GARDENING day! Perfect temperature and an abundance of sunshine. Today I will savor the moments because in no time it will be too cold to work outside.

Speaking of EPIC GARDENING… have you heard of the company? In recent years I have been enjoying more and more of their products. Matter of fact, I re-did my entire 1500 sq ft garden area by replacing my rotting cedar beds with their metal Birdie beds. It was a big project for me but I am loving my new space.

Their gardening supplies (trays and propagation cell trays) are extremely durable. I don’t know about you but I try to reduce waste and what goes in our landfill. These will last me a long time!

Often times they have seeds that are hard to find so take a peek at their seed selection.

What joy to include my Grand Littles in activities on the farm! We learn by doing and in the meantime we are making sweet memories. With the goal to capture their precious, moldable hearts, I can say I love being their Gabble!

A busy and rewarding weekend! While this just might be the last of the flowers until next season, it made playing with them all the more sweet! ((I have a couple of bouquets left for purchase)).
