Dad called to report how great he is feeling, how much energy he has. So good to hear.
Christine had a visit with a specialist who had good news: no invasive procedure today; bad news: obviously needs a surgical treatment; good news: it's straightforward. This is to address a factor that probably contributed to her emergency room and admission. She also liked and, i think may trust, the practitioner, a rarity. (Although i think her extreme discomfort with medical treatment may have eased a little after her hospital stay.)
Chestnuts, at least my chestnuts, with the skin left on them, are perfectly edible after being chopped and simmered in a very herbal cream of butter soup. (Carrots, celery, dried mushrooms, rosemary, sage, and young onions). I assumed it would be fine with pureeing, but even the chunks i sampled were fine. I will probably peel in smaller batches than i did this weekend -- heat is needed to ease the skins off -- but now i have a use for the chestnuts that aren't perfectly cleaned.
Wait, is Carrie eating the chestnuts in the yard??!!
Yesterday's breakfast fresh figs and blueberries, chopped chestnuts, yogurt. Squeee!
Sunday afternoon - Monday evening chestnut harvest: 2 lbs 6 oz. Now curing in the bottom of the fridge.
Lutein yellow is everywhere. A mass of yellow crownbeard lines the woods edge on the east, cutleaf cone flower is massed at the back of the orchard and in other spots within. Swamp sunflower sprawls across the meadow, but the yellow crownbeard grows too high and hides it. I've begun my No Seeds Bleep It campaign to cut back the cutleaf coneflower where it is likely to continue its aggressive growth. It's just not quite as aggressive as deer.
In good news, where i was harvesting the cutleaf coneflower in early spring, the florabundance is remarkable.
So many bean pods on the thicket bean. Here's hoping that i can find a way to make them a bit more palatable.
