Good Wednesday morning. Oh, joy... 94 degrees F again today. Blech.

I've lived in my old farmhouse on 10 acres surrounded by oak and hickory forest for almost 33 years. I basically gutted it and remodeled and restored it myself. I did have professionals put in all new electric and plumbing, but I pretty much did all the rest. I am ready to leave this house though. Farmhouses built back in 1900 were nothing but steps everywhere and we have no bedroom downstairs. I want to build something on the back of the property on ONE level! But hubby is convinced he is bullet proof.

Bottling up my next batch of fermented hot sauce today. I'm going to cold smoke the next batch for a smoked pepper hot sauce.


When life gives you tomatoes, make Bloody Marys.
