Farm Life

Do you know what kind of flower this is???

hmmm Let’s just say this flower can make you some money if you play your cards right.  Still don’t know?

It’s a PUMPKIN!! 

My parents have a pretty good garden going this year. They have squash, zucchini, lettuce, pumpkins, tomatoes, peppers, watermelon (not doing so hot) and CORN!

 

I love going over there and picking the squash and zucchini. We love steaming them and having it with dinner. So much better than store bought!

SO here’s the kicker. Yes, their garden is good, but this is what I really wanted to show you.

Our pigs are getting BIG!

There are many people out there that don’t agree with how we raise our meat, or for eating pork, but this is how we roll.  This is how I grew up and if I have a choice I would rather eat home grown meat rather than store bought. SO much better, and I KNOW what is going into the animal and there are NO hormones. 

yummy…. I smell some good bacon!
