Goat Cheese Farm where milkmaids stir goat milk to make cheese all summer long in a beautiful fjord in central Norway

I got all distracted by our glorious weekend of Doing Nothing that I completely forgot about our farm pick-up on Friday. The take is definitely looking like things are winding down:

- Three heads of lettuce

- Two heads of radicchio

- Two cabbages

- Three bunches of hakurei turnips

- Three bunches of cilantro

- One bunch of kohlrabi

- 1 1/2 pounds of chard

- 1 1/2 pounds of spinach

- 3/4 pounds of baby kale

- Six pounds of carrots

- 1 1/2 pounds of green beans

So, yeah, things are getting quiet, but we're still looking forward to cauliflower and sweet potatoes. And maybe celery root? Maybe?

Tam, Willow the puppy and I visited a friend's horse farm today. Horses, chickens, puppies, cats - all wonderful. It was unusually warm, in the high 70s today here in Maryland. Quite a few photos from the day to share with you.

"Awake! arise! the hour is late!

Angels are knocking at thy door!

They are in haste and cannot wait,

And once departed come no more.

Awake! arise! the athlete's arm

Loses its strength by too much rest;

The fallow land, the untilled farm

Produces only weeds at best.”

― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

I took this shot while stopping at a gas station while travelling Route 13 from North Carolina to Virginia. I'm not sure what town it is, but it's north of Williamston, NC and south of Suffolk, VA. March, 2009.

A beautiful scenic spot of on a country farm, just north of Shallow Lake, Ontario.

My daughter brought me a big bag of produce from a local farm last night, all just picked and organic.

Some farms here in Michigan have annual subscribers and once a week they bring loads of produce to a designated place, to be divided amongst the subscribers.

Yesterday they brought Kale, Swiss Chard, Lettuce, Spinach, Mixed salad greens, Carrots, Cucumbers, Eggplant, Cabbage, Scallions, Tomatos, Squash and various Herbs....

All if it is fresh and lush...and I am gonna have a few delicious meals!!

I love the name of this farm too....''Trillium Haven Farm"...:) :)
