Hi Twist, Did you get caught up?

 

[twisted-acres-farm]

well caught up, PRAYERS for all those facing "issues".

Only thing left in the garden are carrots now. Got all the hoses drained, coiled up and put away for the winter. Chance of snow again tonight. I have pics of Cindy (one of the new cows from Co) the before shots. and lots of other stuff that I may/might remember in the future.

did 14 pints of pickled beets and then 21 jelly jars of beet jelly. Which uses raspberry jello in the recipe. Still waiting for it to "SET" if not I'll re-cook it and add more sure-jell.

5 quart bags of diced peppers and then 7 packages so 16 to 18 stuffed peppers in the freezer as well. Used 2 lbs of ground yak and 3 of beef. Used the leftovers for a stuffed Z squash last weekend. OMG very impressed with the mixture.

another closer up of the discharge from nose. We kept her and old gold (still very pg) back in the rodeo grounds in case I had to haul Cindy to the vets. Added Cindy back into the main herd this past Weds. All better and Old Gold was NOT being very nice to her. Will keep old gold seperate from the main herd until next spring. This way I'm taking no chance with her calf and hope to get the old gal back on an earlier calving date in 2027. She will be open next year unless on of the bulls jumps the fence.

NOPE I follow the recipe from the original jelly maker. It does seem to be getting thicker, chokecherry can take up to 2 weeks to jell properly.
