‼️‼️ I am running quite a bit behind today. CJ needed to be picked up from school and there was lots to be done this morning 🫠 But 20 dozen donuts, a few dozen cookies, almost 40 loaves of bread, 8 boxes of scones and a trailer of meat and orders later we are on our way to the Montevideo Farmers Market 🙌 have a little patience as we will probably still be setting up at start time 🫶 and don’t forget to come snap that picture! I’ll post the drawing next!

Since we have ran short on beef constantly for so long, I decided to braise some shank cuts for supper and my gosh! They were SO tender! I took this picture before I threw them in the oven, after searing and seasoning 🙌 So if you get a 1/4 of a beef from us and wonder what in the world should I do with these, google braising cross cut shanks 🤤

Lots of prepping has went on this week 🙌 rounding out the week with a big batch of cheesy turkey for harvest meals and getting all my sweet and spicy peppers dried/frozen. Next it will be onto apples, pumpkins and squash! (But thankfully those items have a long grace/storage period to get them done!)

I KNOW for a fact there are some very talented bakers on this page! AND even more that just love to bake fall treats 🍎 if you love to bake, be sure to sign up and bring your favorite dessert! PS my family never turns out leftovers if you’re worried about that 🍁😂
🫶🎃Also if you’re brining kiddos for the pumpkin carving and decorating can you let me or Montevideo Farmers Market know so we can guess how many pumpkins to bring?! It will help us get a general idea 💡

A couple of quick announcements!
🫶We will NOT be at the Montevideo Farmers Market this week. With field harvest starting next week, being out of beef, a wedding this weekend, garden clean out, canning, prepping for an awesome fall market next week and catching up on custom meat orders, we felt it was in our best interest to wrap up loose ends at home!
🍁 I am going to be 100% done canning/freezing/drying after today! (Minus apples😅) So if I get any further produce it’s freeeee to anyone that will take it off my hands! 🙌 Also might have extra tomato sauce to sell this year as I did not need to can this much 🤣
🎃🍁🫶 Lastly! Please join us at the Montevideo Farmers Market NEXT week for a TON of fun activities! Pumpkin carving, baked goods contest AND stop at our booth for some hot beverages and a photo opportunity that Charlotte would not let me leave the store without 🫣 you would make her day to swing by and take a picture with her scarecrow! There might even be the extra incentive of participating in a drawing 😉
