Making a squad sized pot o' ham & bean soup. Got the whole house smelling grand.
Gotta thank my SIL. Around 4 years or so ago, we were over to my brother's house for some holiday or another. She'd cooked a spiral cut ham. Good stuff. After dinner, she grabbed the plate still half full of ham and that delectable ham bone and pitched it in the trash. I asked if she ever made anything out of the leftovers, and she replied that they didn't eat leftovers.
Good for me.
Told her that next time, I'd be happy to take 'em home, and I do to this day. I always figured, if there's anything that's a sin, it's wasting food. Bean soup, split pea soup, you name it. Good stuff. 😋

Nov 2020 I was eating an apple and got to the core to notice a sprouted seed. I put it in rockwool. Grew it inside for a year. Yesterday I planted it. Probably a crab apple, but I don’t care I really only want some shade from it.View attachment 294567
Graft any apple to it. It's not hard. I watched a couple vids on the tube and had success. Waiting to see if the ones I did this spring have taken. Last years are flowering now. You can graft as many types as you want on one tree.

Funny ! I was just talking about my Niece when she had a communion and I got er a appletree with 5 grafted strains . She is 24 so the tree must be 12 feet tall now. I ordered from Raintree nursary and got dwarf peach ,apple ,cherry one honey fig and 2 bunches of Evergreen strawberrys roots,
 
Just got back from a wind blown walk. It has been windy here for a thousand days. I am sick of it. You know it is windy when there is hardly any boats on the lake. Watching people trying to get a boat in or out of the water with 3 ft swells is funny......as long as it isn't me doing it.

Gotta run to the hardware store for some supplies. later.
