I officially threw down the holiday guantlet by starting to make some gifts this week... give a boy some sugar, bourbon and half a pound of vanilla beans and watch him go to work!
Sharon's Independence Days Challenge Year 3, week 33
1. Plant something: Some lettuce seeds, chard, radishes
2. Harvest something: Red Cayenne Peppers
3. Preserve something: Dried Cayenne peppers in the dehydrator- To turn them into pepper flakes and jar them. Making Vanilla extract and Vanilla Sugar for Christmas.
4. Waste Not: Obtained a couple of pieces of foam rubber that were discarded to make a cushion for Romeo’s trailer (Hey I got a nice new soft bike seat… I figure he needs one too!)
5: Want not: Got half a pound of vanilla beans to make Vanilla extract and Vanilla Sugar for Christmas presents.
6. Preparation and Storage: Got half a pound of vanilla beans to make Vanilla extract and Vanilla Sugar for Christmas presents
7. Build Community Food Systems: The community garden board got the parks department board to agree to let the community gardeners go from year to year on their plots. And the parks board said more gardens could be added if demand is there.
8. Eat the food (cook something new): Pepper Flakes, Vanilla Sugar, Vanilla Extract
Growing Challenge "Extreme Evangelist Edition"- Nothing much new to report- just working the community garden plot. The community garden board got the parks department board to agree to let the community gardeners go from year to year on their plots. And the parks board said more gardens could be added if demand is there.
