Wow, I thought I had clicked to watch this thread this morning, but obviously not.

The Farmer's Market trip netted me a quart of organic chicken stock and a dozen farm eggs. I wanted whole organic chickens since my DB will be here but the vendor won't have more until mid October. Pooh. Oh, and I got a big Curshaw (Cushaw?) squash for $3. Have to research how to cook and can it. It's what you get when you buy canned pumpkin.

Then on to HD where I got a bale of straw to cushion and cover my butternut squash when they are ready to store in the root cellar.

I hope when my brother is here, we can go to the big wholesale Farmer's Market in Asheville after my colonoscopy next week since we'll be 2/3 of the way there. I want a bushel or two of sweet potatoes to store, and if I can also get King Luscious apples, I'll can apple pie filling. I don't know if that apple will store well, so maybe get just half a bushel. It will give me something to do while my brother is out exploring the countryside.

BTW, he's planning to bring shrimp AND snow crab. Yum, we'll have a feast!

Kooger, I didn't comment because you and I have talked about it on the phone.

Molly, It's remarkable that you got no dirt in the mustang!
