We went to a shindig at a local farm. Bigger than I expected. Lots of crafts booths, a corn maze, pumpkin patch, all kinds of homemade treats - but $7 for a 2x4" banana bread, and $20 for a large home made sourdough loaf, had to pass on that, but folks were snapping them up, so guess I'm out of touch. We fed lettuce to a goat. Woot-woot! And that's my day so far. ;) :D

I have to figure the profit margin on banana bread, we make really good bread, with walnuts and Kahlua. For I think about $1 a loaf. Maybe a new business. ;)
 
Bush hogged the lower pasture down in the bottoms this afternoon, just a few acres. Cut quite a few low hanging tree limbs with the new loppers I bought. Pushed down a dead willow tree and got it pushed out of the way. The bottoms are now done for the year.

Then I cut a couple acres up in the main pasture where the hay rings used to sit. Lady's thumb and perrila had killed all the grass. They had to go!

Watching football now, no plans but dinner and more football.

Hooray, all the upstairs door trim is painted. Little granddaughter had her headphones on while I was painting, she was singing and playing ukelele, didnt realize I could hear her, but it was great being entertained.
Almost time to start cooking dinner, and get some of the cherry tomatoes washed and sorted...green ones downstairs and red and yellow stay up. Picked four buckets of them today. And a bucket of cayenne and habanero.

that's some high prices for bread!! I sell my sourdough rye for $7 , regular white for $5 , banana bread I would sell for $5 too
You must be in a large city with a bunch of rich folk!
 
so I am being very bad, having a slice of pizza and a beer in bed LOL. I was so tired from moving stuff around today went to bed early and then son asked if I wanted some pizza ( he made one for snack after working on solar panels all day)
I feel like I unloaded a trailer full of hay by myself...
So I moved ALL our food storage to the pantry instead of extra room, many many buckets that were heavy. I moved all the animal care stuff in the livingroom temporary , will go into a cabinet after I sort it. Cleared out the closet in the room, was full of things that needed to go in the trash, have 6 bags of trash including my last wine making experiment I forgot in the closet and the top is rusted shut on the bottle LOL , going into the trash definitely. I found my ice cream maker :)
Told husband once this project gets done I want to go swimming
