Day of Trade

Mom and I are getting together tomorrow morning so I can mill her wheat into flour, and for a bit of trade. Mom, here is what I could use from your list;

Baked Potatoes (chive or parsley) 36 (1/2 each)
Pea Pods 7 bags
Plain Green Beans 5 bags
Tomatilloes 8 small
Carrots still growing
Lettuce still growing
Applesauce 15 containers
Turkey 1 (8.5 pounds)
Oil about 1/3 bottle
Butter 2/3 stick
Mint (Dry)

Sharon, If you want to make some trades too, here is what I like on your list;

2 small onions
green beans with tomatoes
2 packages raspberries
small amount of dill
Chili
oil
pepper
rice

For those of you wondering what happened to the Jacksons, they have already conceded!

  1. I will give you 1 package of raspberries, onions, dill, and chili. No trade necessary since you gave me the wheat and corn flour. I'm not sure on the oil, I just have a small amount left. I'm planning on using some for pizza with the flour you gave me. I will check the rice too since I was planning on having some with the roasted vegetables.

  7. Oh - I forgot to add the mutant carrots. Also, we were going to rummage around the garden cause there are still lots of beet and turnips that are small. There is probably some kale and some fresh parsley. If you would like, we can dig up some of the mint and start some for you. I started a plant inside and I have had fresh mint every day.

  8. Sharon - would you like to trade for anything? - Same deal as the eggplant. I ate it today - It was wonderful. Two of my coworkers sampled and one of them wants the recipe.
