The Big Dig

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to participate in the big sweet potato dig this year, as I was recovering from a nasty run-in with a black widow.  On the upside, I can finally spin webs!  So, it was left completely up to my dear Ben to unearth each and every one of the sweet potatoes that grew from the 200 slips we planted in the spring.  He is truly a good guy.


Yes, there are potatoes in all of those bins!

By the time the ginger in the greenhouse was ready to harvest, I had fully recovered.  It was a very aromatic experience.

Home-brewed pumpkin ginger beer this fall?  I think so!
