Independance Days #5

1. Plant something - Planted the peas started from seeds last week in the garden. The slugs are still out in full force and they seem to especially like anything squash related, so the squash are still in their pots until they get bigger. The artichokes that I gave up on are getting new growth, so maybe the slugs didn't totally kill them off.

2. Harvest something - Blackberry leaves for the rabbits, chard and white radishes.

3. Preserve something - nothing this week.

4. Reduce waste - Hauled the gross foam from the boat cushion project that I haven't blogged about yet to be recycled. I suppose I used enough gas to offset the recycling effort, but still...

5. Preparation and Storage - Still packing to move. I'll be picking up the truck on Thursday. If it don't fit, it ain't going. I am so tired of this already!

6. Build Community Food Systems - nothing this week.

7. Eat the Food - more meals out of the pantry, no new recipes. Trying to use up some supplies before the move.
