Grandma's flavorfully chicken soup


When my grandma was here for a visit she made some really good chicken noodle soup. It had turnips, onions, carrots, leeks, and chicken. We made it on the Thursday of MEA weekend. My brother and I had it for lunch with a plain bagel to dip. Whenever I have her chicken noodle soup I think of the middle of winter.








Clancy's marinated lamb chops


I had these really amazing marinated lamb chops. I grilled the lamb chops because my grand-parents came from Florida.The chops where marinated with oregano and lemon. I grilled them for about 3 or 4 minutes on each side. To finish it off we had some cherry pie from Kowalskis with some cookies and cream ice cream.

Fall Harvest at Earth Dance Farm




On October 2,2010 me and my family went to Earth Dance Farm for the fall harvest. The fall harvest is when as many as people can come to the farm have a chance to meet the interns and the other members of the farm at the harvest. At the harvest they have chili,coffe,apple cider, hot water,and some hot chocolate. They had a fire that kept us warm. There was also horse activites in the horse coral. After we ate we went on a hay ride up to the pumpkin patch to pick some pumpkins.

At the farm it felt like it was the beginning of Fall. There was a small breeze and the corn and potatoes where dug out of the ground. When I saw the acorn squash I thought of Fall, when my mom makes squash soup for really cold days.
