Today, was a tillin day. After much exertion trying to hand till a fairly large area, over the course of a few weeks, we finally came to the steady conclusion of renting a power rototiller. With the full intention of only doing it once in our garden's life.
Rhubarb...who in the past, informed me that he had rototilled a large area of earth completely barefoot...well...hmmm....I strongly discouraged that idea.
And henceforth, he is tilling WITH the shoes on. I have christened the new clothes line with it's first load of wash. Normally, I'm not a line dry type of gal. Once they're dry they seem to feel stiff and kind of nasty. Yeah yeah, the smell is nice...but we'll see. I'm a cynic when it comes to clotheslines. If there is such a thing.
Dinner: I'm attempting homemade ravioli's, stuffed with a mix of goat cheese from the Lane county area, Asiago cheese, a wee bit of parmesan, and a wee-er bit of lemon zest and fresh Italian parsley. Steer away from lemon juice...from a lemon...the soggy effect isn't the exact effect desired. We'll see how this works...seeing as I SUCK at rolling out any form of dough...and I don't have enough eggs for the recipe that I don't really know.
Tillin' day is almost concluded...
