Word of the Day

Exfolgerate - To spew coffee out one's mouth or nose.

Back to gardening. The rain that started up last night, let up and dried up before 2PM, so I was able to pick the tomatoes. I really should can tomatoes but...tomorrow. I'll do it tomorrow when I do the laundry. I didn't get the jerky done until around 2 AM this morning. It would have been done at around 1 AM but I fell asleep and the timer wasn't loud enough to wake me. I did wake up at 2 AM so all was not lost. The jerky is done. I portioned it out and labeled it. And I sampled it. Deer Jerky is addicting.
