Winter gardening and other stuff



I am taking a moment to add some words to this because I don't feel like grading papers right now.


Erik got a new gun for this hunting season, so we used that as an excuse to go out and shoot at some recycling and other stuff.
 This is the inside of Brookton Market where we go for all of our favorite things.  Just had an idea to take a picture of the inside of Wegmans to put beside this.  Wegmans is my own personal Hell.  Brookton is the ideal grocery shopping experience for me.  I hope they never go out of business.

This is Sam's .270.  It's a fun bolt action.  the projectile is only a little larger than a .22, but the amount of powder behind it is awe inspiring.  It holds 4 in the magazine and one in the chamber, so it's a lot of fun to pull the bolt and slam in another round and pick off tin cans like zombies.

This is the weeder all curled up and waiting for me to light the wood stove. She's so cute in the afternoons.
Sarah and I made a butternut squash salad to take over to Erik and Margaret's for dinner and Archer night.  It was really good.  We made the dressing, too, which I think is really cool.  Gotta run.  Time for another meeting.  Maybe I'll write more later...maybe not.  Cheers.

It is an awesome salad with squash that is marinated and then roasted and tossed into the salad with goat cheese and pistachio nuts. Check it:

We've gotten so many recipes from BH&G, thank you G'ma Harrington! We're talking about making the BH&G Maine Thanksgiving Menu, very exciting.
