Frozen Goodness

While at the farm market Wednesday purchasing my usual second baskets. I was told I could get a bushel of freezer corn for $10. What, are you serious? last year I paid $22. I was all over it. The corn was larger then I usually prefer for corn on the cob but perfect for freezing. I got 27 quart bags from the bushel, plus 2 meals of COC.

Also the second baskets are awesome. This market puts a mixture of veggies in 4 qt and 8 qt baskets. Sometimes they aren't pretty. In other words they are marked, small, misshapen, larger then normal, mutated (2 summer squah stuck together) singles, or yesterday's. I stop once or twice a week and get a fruit basket for fruit and yogurt and a veggie basket. I also buy new veggies, but mostly the seconds keep up fed most of the summer.

Why I don't comment and don't care if anyone comments here.

I haven't been blogging for long. Most of the time I am trying to create a place to put down ideas. I have middle of the road ideas about most things: religion, politics, childrearing and relationships. I don't think I am offensive in the least.

However I have found that the majority of the time my comments on other moderated comments are deleted. I just had it happen again. I mean it makes me want to check to see if my deoderant is failing me. You know?

I am not every time, just more then I thought was usual. A week or so ago I commented that I agreed with a blogger about a recipe that was posted. I mean those are pretty much the words I used, "I tried this recipe and it was great." What about that could have turned someone off. The lastest one was a comment about the kind and color of paint. I think I said something along the lines of I tried a similar color in a different brand.

I also stopped joining swaps and giveaways.

Sorry for the rant. Leave a comment. Maybe you will see it on here, maybe not.

How to stay cool in 95 degree heat without A/C

It is 95 today, yesterday and all week long. How to stay cool?

1. Fans are your friend. For some reason air that is hot and moving doesn't feel as bad as plain hot air.

2. Drink lots of water.

3. Go swimming it cools your body.

4. Visit air conditioned public places: libraries, stores, mall, etc.

5. Eat cold foods: popcicles, ice cream, etc.

6. Take a shower.

7. Regulate the heat in your home. Open windows on the cooler side, close the ones on the warmer side. Cause a draft using two fans in opposite windows first blowing one way and then the other.

8. Relax. There is no better time to just get as much done as fast as possible and then just sit back and relax, with a book or movie or whatever.
