RE: #ulog 25! Today's Treats on the Ol' Homestead
What a harvest!!
I also prefer the smaller fruit, especially when it's zucchini or cucumbers. I like when they are still hard and crunchy. I also read somewhere that younger veggies are healthier than the older ones. They actually compared it to people, lol.
Oh, potatoes! Fellow starch babe! You know, we came to Slovakia over the weekend and my husband helped harvesting the potatoes. In total there were 25 rows and they got around 50 bags of potatoes. I need to check how big are these bags in liters but when you fill it in and let it stand on the ground it's about 1 meter tall.
Oh, my grandma planted ground cherries for ages without knowing that you can eat them, lol. She would never open the thing and just let it dry and used it as a table decoration with some dried flowers in the autumn.
Thank you for sharing Lyndsay!
Yesss, so good in salads!
Hearing about your potato harvest success has me smiling so much, good work everyone! How long will it take you all to eat them?
Hilarious story about your Grandma! Bless her heart! :) What a beautiful table that would have been though...how creative of her to use the cherries as decorations.
They will last until April next year but my uncle also use them to feed the pigs. Actually you can't keep them much longer as then they are not that tasty anymore.
Oh yeah, my family was surprised when I came from Switzerland a few years ago and told them that these cherries are being sold for so much money there, lol. But they are cute as the decoration too!
Thank you for getting back to me Lyndsay! :)
Mmm all I can say is: Lucky Pigs!
