• Spreading the wealth

  
  Throwback at Trapper Creek — Authority: 122
  Traffic jam during the morning commute Call me strange, but I would venture a guess that Della’s production from her back-end has more of a lasting effect on our land than what comes out of her bag.  Don’t get me wrong – I love the milk and everything that goes with that.  But she hasn’t given me milk ...

• Getting dirty

  
  Throwback at Trapper Creek — Authority: 122
  Now that the frost is really out of the soil from our cold spell making it OK to walk in garden, it was time to actually see if my soil mulching on the root crops was adequate.  Plus, I was getting low on roots. Last year at this time we had 4 feet of snow, which is a great insulator for crops – this year we only ...

• So Theres No More Confusion

  
  Sustainable Dunwoody — Authority: 103
  This eco-stuff is confusing, lets face it. Fuel Efficient Vehicle Parking? Seems obvious, but maybe it needs to say "Vehicles that get over 15 MPG." Whatever. We have a long way to go. But I dont need to be confusing you anymore about this blog. This has always been my personal blog, but its name is too similar ...

• Seeing how the garden is faring

  They say it takes 100 hours to get acclimated to an extreme temperature change – and it figures, we are just getting used to the cold, and now we are going into the usual ice storm warm up.  I had to shed my vest and hat today while building fence.  We haven’t been above freezing for days, but that is ending ...

• A can of worms

  
  Throwback at Trapper Creek — Authority: 122
  Earthworm casting, north side Coyote field, 11-30-09 Something has been bothering me for quite some time and usually I just let these types of things roll off, and consider the source.  But, lately I hear more and more about how bad cattle are for the earth, red meat causes cancer, cattle eat food meant for ...

• Knowing what side my bread is buttered on

  
  Throwback at Trapper Creek — Authority: 122
  One of the things on my list of things to do by the beginning of December was to dry Della off.  She’s old for a house cow, and needs the rest.  Her calf is due next spring, so she will have an ample dry period over the winter.  This lactation with her was one for the record books for me – I have never in my ...

• Nothing much to say

  
  Throwback at Trapper Creek — Authority: 122
  The weather has been incredible for this time of year – we are soaking it up.  Which means I haven’t completed my canning goal, or dried up the cow.  I’ll just wait for a rainy day, in Western Oregon you don’t usually have to wait too long for that. Here’s our day through the camera lens. ...

• Kitchen sink chili

  
  Throwback at Trapper Creek — Authority: 122
  I wasn’t kidding when I said this was Kitchen Sink Chili – you never know what will be in it.  For sure beans and your typical Tex-Mex seasonings but sometimes it will contain meat or extra vegetables.  I feign ignorance of proper chili making since I live a ways North. I do soak my beans following Nourishing ...

• Not stuffed, but thankful anyway

  
  Throwback at Trapper Creek — Authority: 122
  Our Thanksgiving preparations were small.  A local menu for sure, pork roast with fresh apple sauce, stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy and apple pie.  None of us particularly care for leftovers unless it is stuffing and pie, so that was the menu plan.  We snacked on veggies during the day and carbed out on pie ...

• The magical fruit

  
  Throwback at Trapper Creek — Authority: 122
  I promise this will be the final word on this years dry bean harvest.  The final threshing of the beans were on my canning/preserving list, although I didn’t mention it.  I like to add things to my list that I can cross off – that way I think I have accomplished something! A sunny day in late November was my ...

• Wanting to finish canning…

  
  Throwback at Trapper Creek — Authority: 122
  windfall I want to set a goal for finishing my canning/preserving activities for December 1st.  Apples I had expected to pick and keep to eat “fresh”, suffered through a wind storm and became windfalls overnight.  So plans change.  Sigh.  Chunky applesauce they will be.  I still need to process my naked ...
