Not much to tell here. We got power back around 7pm last night so that was about one hour short of exactly 4 days without power. My sister and her family are still waiting.
The squash plant in the compost pile is an Acorn squash. We have definite dark green fruit now. The garden was well thrashed by the storms. Tons of green tomatoes are scattered about. I did harvest a fresno pepper the other night and we were very pleased with how bracing it was. It was perfectly hot and just what our Thai beef salad needed.
I had a nice acorn squash surprise at the old house a few years back. Pretty sure from where it was growing it came from the back end of a bird sitting on a fence after visiting someone else’s compost pile.
That made me laugh. I’m pretty sure this came from one I ate last winter, but I may tell the nieces it was from a bird’s butt to see the reaction.
