That is wonderful, Marilyn. Congratulations on all your wins and I really do envy you your green thumb! Your quilting is delicious!

Well, Marilyn. You aren't too far from me - maybe I will show up for dinner one day Kohlrabi is my DH 's favorite too but we have to buy it when we see it in the store since we don't have much of a garden (although for the first time we do have a bumper crop of blueberries)

Congratulations, Marilyn! What a haul!!

When ingredients are that fresh, farmhouse cooking is all they need. Hearty and wholesome.

Marilyn, I agree with Cathy. It's hard to beat country cooking. Congratulations on all the wonderful entries and winnings.

Marilyn, farm cooking is the best kind of cooking. It is what I still do when I have to cook. I just don't enjoy cooking like I used to. I would rather eat a bowl of oatmeal or a peanut butter sandwich. Luckily, DH isn't too picky either.

Well, Wendy...there have been very few times he and I didn't enter something in the local fair
in the last 30 yrs and most of the last 15 yrs in the other fair. Not so much variety, tho, as it is 60 miles
round trip and you have to enter things on different days ! As it is, it's 3 trips...deliver, view and pick up.
The cash didn't pay for the gas !! I fully intend to make a quilt from the ribbons...they're safe in their own
stash box !
And Sue...Yes ! I cook ! Shown there were basil, oregano,parsley and dill...and I have others! We grow our own garlic and onions,
cukes, tomatoes, green beans, zuchinni, carrots and odd stuff like compact melons,eggplant, beets and kolrabi..DH's fav !
and leeks this year...tho they may not have enough time to get very large. Because we have a small area...no corn
or potatos. But I have a good patch of raspberrys and blackberries ! I try not to grow more than we use and can put by...
can, freeze or dry....and share with folks. too. You get here...I'll cook dinner ! Mind you, I'm a farm cook ! no fussy stuff.

Dang, Marilyn, do you cook with all the veggies and herbs? Let's all go to Marilyn's house!

Wow Marilyn it never ends. Have a look on the Chinese Whisper thread folks.

You're going to need a trophy cabinet Marilyn. Have you won ribbons before. This is terrific

Didn't mean to submit ! so just continuing ! It's County Fair time here...I get to participate in ours and in
the neighboring county....it is much bigger and has more support than our own fair. Well..enjoy both
and did well at both this year....my wool applique won a Best of Show and a cash award, too...very nice surprise.
Shucks ! Never get the order just right !!

Well.. this quilter has been busy with the garden and putting up with very hot weather for us...trying to keep
things growing and producing with out bankrupting the budget with the water bill !! So far , so good ! Yum !

Well...this would keep a body busy for a while !!...Rosemary ..is this in the line-up ? :shock:

Oh Joy! Oh Bliss! Oh....Poop Poop!
