Safe travels home & thanks for taking us with you to Manitoulin.

 

Are you going to batch up some cocktails before you leave so they will be ready for you when you return?

Yup - just topped up the previous two - Negroni with a bit of wood in there with it and Brother's Perryman.

I just don't want to look back and think "I could have eaten that."

Unsupervised, rebellious, radical agrarian experimenter, minimalist penny-pincher, and adventurous cook. Crotchety, cantankerous, terse curmudgeon, non-conformist, and contrarian who questions everything!

The best thing about a vegetable garden is all the meat you can hunt and trap out of it!

Got a little spookier - a tiny bit of rain came down - though you could see sheets if it on the other side of the channel. 

 

Had a little visit from new friends here a few minutes ago - they have an older girl and a couple of younger boys - we ran into them at the grocery store (would be unfair to call it the supermarket) the other day and realized that the boys would be needing dragons and we have a couple of spares. They grow garlic and hops (among many other things) - and I wanted them to try the black garlic. I think we may have converted someone to sous vide - we shall see! They gifted us with a nice little bottle of maple syrup. 

so.... will we see in the fall edition id the SV took?

Nothing is better than frying in lard.

Nothing.  Do not quote me on this.

I will really miss interacting with all of you on an almost daily basis. But let me tell you much as I love being in Manitoulin.... There's no place like home!

So I heard rattling around in the back of the car - asked Anna to check what rug rat was up to.

 

She had picked up one of the bags with the baskets of blueberries in it and dumped the whole thing! Blueberries everywhere - Anna's daughter got a whole lot of them up when we arrived, hubby will blow the rest out of the various crevices in the van tomorrow. 

 

We decided to move Anna's chef's knife out of her reach.

You can always rely on kids for entertainment value. :D

It's kinda like wrestling a gorilla... you don't stop when you're tired, you stop when the gorilla is tired.
