Welcome to the Homestead Blog Hop!

Morning, Partners! 🤠

What a beautiful Autumn day we gave greeting us! Is it the same where you’re waking up?

Okra

I think our garden has slowed down now. Not sure about that okra. It keeps surprising me with more, but never huge quantities. Dragonfly on okra blossoms

Beautiful friend I found in the okra patch

I’ve been fixing it breaded with corn meal and baked in the oven. I love it, but it turns out my family is not a fan. From now on, I’ll just stick to stewing it, since that is what Greg likes.

75 Hard

Still going strong with the 75 Hard Challenge, although today I slept later instead of rising at the crack of dawn to work out.

If you’re curious about that, The 75 Hard Challenge. My First Four Days will explain more.

Also, on YouTube, I explained more in depth. Watch that here

Today at Ridge Haven Homestead

Today…laundry issues are the hot mess of the day. Finally breaking down and investing in a new washing machine. It’s sad, but the time has come to retire our old one.

I’ll be happy just to catch up on Mt Washmore!

Have a wonderful day, and be thankful that I didn’t share a picture of our laundry room!
