Haven’t Burned Anything Yet!

OMG! Vehicles nonstop!

*Tractors, and combines and wagons…Oh MY!

*Corn and beans, and Dryers….Oh My!

* Doggies and puppies in and out ….Oh My!

*Augers, and bins, and cornstalks…Oh My!

* Hungry and thirsty tired farmers…Oh My!

*Lunch and dinner and meals…Oh MY!

Harvest is a lot of work…..HOWEVER…. it is my favorite time of year! Even though I’m cooking a lot of meals, I love the company, and people in and out. It’s work, fun and laughter.

Most of us are brewed tea drinkers, so everyday; we are going through about 4 gallons.

Stick to the rib meals these past 2 weeks were on my agenda. Meatloaf, mashed potatoes, green beans/hamburgers, hot dogs, French fries, corn/ pizza and salad/spaghetti, meat balls, garlic bread…I’m straining my brain to come up with good meals. No! I am not calling The Pioneer Woman!

With our dear neighbors John, and son Eli, Farmer Thomas’s crops are rolling out in fashion. The weather has been perfect. The sun is shining, and life is good.

Even though I have walked miles at the grocery store, and am living in the kitchen, I’ve made a plethora of farmers happy.

Most likely, within the next day or two, the oldest son will arrive with the twins. Grandpa will take them on the combine. Yes, Gramma Farm will provide Lots’ O love, hugs, and lunch.

Soon it will be:

*Pumpkins and ghouls, and goblins, Oh My!

*Turkeys and gobblers, Thanksgiving, Oh My!

* Shopping, and baking, and carolers, Oh My!

* Christmas, and Magi, and stars, Oh My!

THEN………….

The most holy and beautiful night of the year…..especially when it snows is Christmas Eve.

My Farmer always said, coming out of the milk barn, his heart grew two sizes as he envisioned the house all lit up. Colored lights reflecting on the snow, bedazzled the barn lot. Most of all, knowing that his family was healthy, happy and preparing for the holiday, melted his heart.

WINTER…… silently the snow crystalizes the ground with white and shadows of blues and purples.

Life on the farm is an aesthetic experience.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS LOOK FOR THE BLESSINGS!
