FALL GARDEN

With fall in the air it makes you want to sit back and make all of those good ole fall recipes like pumpkin roll and pumpkin bread and apple pies and etc. I have some real good recipes I will be putting on my blog for fall.
Would you believe that I have cucumbers blooming now. At the begining of Aug. I planted some zucchini and cucumbers to see if they would make it in. They are some of the most beautiful plants I have ever grew. They are blooming and some have small zucchini on them. So I have learned something you can grow these in the fall. But with our frost supposed to be around Oct. 20 this year they will have to sure be growing fast. I will plant them sooner next year if I am alive. My mustard is also doing good. I searched everywhere for some onion sets for fall but could not get any thing year. So next year I plan on getting more than I need and save some for fall. They will keep if you put them in a cool place until Aug.
Our corn is over with and I still have been blooming.
I planted corn in the middle of June and believe it or not it came in. I planted golden queen and some ambrosia. I added some turkey beans and they are blooming so pretty. I also planted some fall beans around the middle of June and they made it in and I thought it would be to late for them. So you can have a late fall garden. Most people end theirs around July when the corn is in.
I planted my corn in the middle of our potato rows. The vines had began to die out so I pulled them to the side and went down the middle and planted corn so we had 4 extra rows of late corn to eat on. But I would plant ambrosia as it comes in earlier than most corn. We dug our potatoes and the corn never interfeared with them. Just make sure you plant it in the middle. It was sort of hard to take care of with the potato vines in the way but it sure tasted good with all our other corn all ready gone.
Would you believe I am still picking greasy beans. It don't seem like those things are never going to die out. lol. I like to pick the dried beans to shell out and add to my shuck. To me the more shelled beans you have in them the better they are. Greasy beans are the best in the world to dry for shuck beans to me. Most people dry white half runners but me I love the peanut bean or the greasy beans for making shuck beans. Would you believe a lot of people do not even know what shuck beans are. In case you don't know shuck beans are beans that have been picked and washed and let dry good. Then string them and break them up. Lay them on a clean towel or sheet out in the sun. I like to cover mine over with a sheer curtain so nothing can get on them. Let them dry for around 4 days or until they turn light tan. The hulls will feel dry. Make sure they are laid out in a single layer. The beans will be hard. Take them then and put them in a ziploc bag and I keep mine in the deep freezer. When cooking them, look them for dirt or maybe lint or etc. and then wash good again. Put around six hand- fulls in a kettle with water up over them and a big piece of salt bacon. Let cook for around 5 hours. Add some grease or oil to them also. You will have to keep adding some water but you do not want themt o be like soup beans. They will look like a pot of fresh cooked green beans. You just have to keep tasting them to see if they are done. Some of the best eating in the world to me. lol. Don't do like I did tho and put half a kettle of dryed beans in. When I was finished I had two big pots of beans. They will never let me live that one down. Would you believe that you can get almost a bushel of green beans that are dried into shuck beans in a gallon size ziplock bag. Try it and see.

Ice Cream, your choice

You can use any kind of cookie dough you like. Chco. chip, white choc. oatmeal, toffee. Take and spray a muffin pan. Place the cookie dough in each muffin slot. Just enough for the bottom and up the side. Let bake on 350 for 10 minutes. Let it be golden around the edges but still a little underdone so they will not get hard. Take out of muffin pans and put on a platter. Top each one with a scoop of ice cream of your chose. Then drizzle choc. syrup over the top of these and then carmel. Then add the nuts if you like. Make sure and eat this hot. That is when it is so good. Can add some cool whip if you like or even some bananas or cherries. Create what ever topping you like.
