Tonight’s dinner is called Farewell Garden Soup. This is the last of my veggies from the fall harvest: carrots, onions, broccoli, chives and potatoes. I added celery, leftover hominy, garlic, spices and tomato juice. 🇨🇦 #dinner #soup #gardening #cooking

Dinner tonight is jambalaya, made with tomatoes, onions and jalapeños from my garden, turkey and a shrimp ring I found in the back of the freezer. Okra, peppers and celery were at the end of their life in my fridge, and canned corn and mushrooms. Hubby adds sausage to his.

My dogs think you’re awesome, and that your opinion was probably right. Don’t listen to those other people.

Happy Hallowe’en! I had nostalgia about the homemade treats from the 1970s, and made popcorn balls. They taste just like Cracker Jack (without peanuts). I’ll definitely make these again. 🎃
