Eric Wagoner | 2000-03-12T10:44:09 | false | It was a real homesteading |
It was a real homesteading kind of day here at the country home. After getting laundry out of the way, I weeded the garden and mixed some unplanted beds. I'd wanted to plant several root vegetables (radishes, beets, carrots, turnips, parsnips), but the beds were still too wet from yesterday's storms. I baked two loaves of sourdough bread. I started a small wheel of gouda cheese
(ob cheese making link) and made several pounds of cottage cheese.
I roasted a chicken and potatoes (lunches for the week!) using a new recipe that involved butterflying the whole chicken and roasting at 500 degrees. I collected a bunch of pecans from the front yard and made two loaves of sourdough banana nut bread.
Finally, I read in the new book I have, The Encyclopedia of Country Living (as recommended by Mike Gunderloy of LarkFarm), on growing and processing grains. Several of my friends have a running joke inspired by my homemade pizzas -- I make the mozzarella, grow the basil & tomatoes, make the crust from scratch (using whey from the cheese). "What, " they say "you didn't grind the wheat into flour yourself, too? " It's coming, though this year it'll be amaranth, quinoa, and corn.
