Peas and Tomatoes
Those are the peas off 3 plants! There are over 100 plants out there.
Blanched Peas
I don’t mind freezing in small batches but I don’t like running the canner when it’s half full. This ended up giving me 5 – 8 oz. bags of peas and one meal’s worth of shelled peas. The ones that had gotten too big were the ones I shelled.
Peas
I’m going to pick more snow peas this afternoon and trade them to a friend for some raw milk.
The tomatoes were picked over the last couple of days. They did have a good head start in the greenhouse but there are a whole lot of places where it’s still too cold to plant tomatoes. Then, there are places where it will be over 100 degrees in just a few weeks. I’d hate to live in those places! Oh . . wait . . .

I’ve never tasted better peas than fresh ones…..no contest.
Vivian Oaks says
LOL….yeah, you do live in one of those places. I’m visiting Lancaster PA right now and it’s in the low 40’s and drizzly! I’d almost rather it was 100…well, maybe not quite. Enjoy your weather till it gets unbearable.

Hah! I live in one of those places too – central California. Won’t be long until we’re having triple-digit temperatures. Spring has been pretty nice, though.
