Harvest!

Well, I certainly did not think it would take this long to get back to the blog!   Lots of family stuff for the holidays and now it is harvest time!

I have tons of tomatoes and green beans and greens of all kinds.  The lettuces are especially lovely.  I recently found out that if you wait 3 days to eat "fresh" picked lettuce the bitter taste goes away.  It is caused by a hormone that needs those days to dissipate in the leaves.  Now we have absolutely lovely table greens!

I also have new pumpkin butter body whip and lotion and am finishing up some Thyme-Mint-Chamomile Scrub.  I loved making up the Pumpkin Pie Spice, Candy Cane, and Holiday Yummies body products.
