Sunday Work Day

Since most of Saturday was spent doing nothing (after running a 10 mile race, mind you), Sunday turned into a super productive day at the little house on Pine.

Today, I planted more spinach, cucumbers, zucchini (golden and black beauty), sunflowers, bee flower mix, and zinnias. We’ve started to harvest spinach, lettuce mixes, and cherries (eee!!). I have a post coming with all of the things I’ve planted so far this year. So much happening on the homestead!

I have a variety of things to plant here, including kiwi, sunflowers, and squashes.

After spending most of the morning in the hot sun, I spent some time in the early afternoon running errands, picking up things like milk and eggs for baking, strawberries from a local farm, and a few bags of humus/compost from our local home/garden store {and of course a few more cardboard boxes from various locations}.

Made with strawberries, of course. Finished product will be unveiled tomorrow!

Since I planted some summer zucchini in the garden today, I thought it would be fitting to finish using the shredded zucchini from the homestead last year! I froze this in July.

I made a couple dozen chocolate chip zucchini muffins. Delicious! Recipe coming soon on my Recipage.

Then I whipped up two dough balls for quiche. I have so much spinach, I think a spinach quiche or two is in my future! {maybe I’ll even have enough left over to make some spinach bites, too!}

The bedroom is the next paint project…maybe we’ll save that for our next work vacation 😉

So much productivity at home today! I’m excited for tomorrow…a morning hike followed by an afternoon of planting and pulling out our porch/lawn furniture and a little champagne and strawberry cake gathering! Happy Birthday to me 🙂
