With the crazy weather we've been having and early tornados here we decided to get all our tree trimming done. The pecans, pear, apple trees and flowering shrubs are now trimmed and all broken limbs removed. This took several hours under windy conditions. Next time I am wearing a face mask. I got whipped in the face countless times by branches waving in the wild wind.
We trimmed the overgrowth around the pond and removed a few dried stumps to make more room for the water we will no dfoubt get in the spring rains. The malard duck thought this work was interesting and kept swimming by to observe. She's very happy living in both locations, our pond and next door with the boys. She visits our pond during the day and spends the night next door with her beau. Hussy!
For dinner I used the last bag of frozen tomatoes, my home made ricotta cheese, swiss chard, of course and made lasagna layering the chard with the cheese between the noodles. The fresh marinara sauce was outstanding, heavy on the garlic. Yummy!!!! What a treat!
