    PHOTOS MISSING, WILL BE REPLACED SOON. THANKS FOR UNDERSTANDING.

    WENT BACK TO HARROW TODAY TO SEE IF THEY HAD MORE RASPBERRY/PEACH JAM, THEY DIDN'T. I GUESS I NEED TO LEARN HOW TO MAKE IT FOR MINI-ME WHO LOVES IT
    BY THE AG BUILDING IN HARROW. YOU CAN SORT OF MAKE OUT THE SIGN


    AG BUILDING, BAD SHOT BUT THAT'S IT. I PICTURE IT AS SOME SORT OF SECRET SERVICE, MISSION IMPOSSIBLE TYPE TRAINING FOR COWS AND PIGS. I THINK I HAVE AN OVER-ACTIVE IMAGINATION
    SHOCKER, CORN FIELDS IN ESSEX COUNTY. LOL


    WE GOT REALLY LOST SO I TOOK A CHANCE AND TURNED DOWN THIS LITTLE BACK ROAD


    CORN ON ONE SIDE


    CORN ON THE OTHER SIDE


    I  HAD CHILDREN OF THE CORN RUNNING THROUGH MY HEAD. TOLD MINI-ME TO LOCK HER DOOR AND NO MATTER WHAT DO NOT MAKE ANY EYE CONTACT IF YOU SEE SMALL KIDS


    WE THOUGHT THE CHILDREN OF THE CORN SCENARIO WAS DONE UNTIL WE TURNED DOWN THE NEXT BACK ROAD. APPARENTLY THEY ARE JUST WINDING US THROUGH THE CORN MAZE BEFORE THEY GRAB US
    SAFETY AT LAST. IN THE BIG TOWN OF MCGREGOR. THIS IS THE TOWN WHERE HORSEY IS BOARDED
    I TRIED TO GET A SHOT OF THESE COOL LITTLE CARS FOR YOU FOLKS


    BUT THIS BUTTMUNCH CUT ME OFF


    THE SONG "MEMORIES" PLAYS IN MY HEAD AS WE PASS HOMESENSE. ONCE UPON A TIME WHEN HUBS WAS WORKING THIS WAS MY FAVE STORE TO HANG OUT IN. I HAVE NOT BEEN INSIDE IN OVER 2 YEARS *TEAR*


    OKAY WHEN I TOLD YOU GUYS WE HAVE STANDS EVERYWHERE I WAS NOT KIDDING. THIS IS ON A MAIN  INTERSECTION IN THE CITY


    YUP, THIS IS WHAT LIVING NEAR FARM COUNTRY MEANS. THEY BRING IT IN TO SELL IT TO THE CITY FOLK


    MY FATHER IS LAW WORKS HERE, TOTALLY RANDOM BUT WE PASSED BY SO I TOOK A PIC OF IT FOR YA


    EVERYONE'S FAVE STAND, LAFFERTY'S- IT'S BY THE AIRPORT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD


    TOOK MINI-ME OUT FOR FISH N CHIPS. DOES THIS NOT LOOK FANCY? LOL, BUT IT IS HONESTLY THE BEST FISH AROUND


    MY BEAST


    I RAVE ABOUT THIS PLACE TO EVERYONE INCLUDING MINI-ME. TAKE HER TODAY AND IT WAS NOT UP TO PAR. NOT SURE WHY. BUT THE FISH WAS GREASY AND THE FRIES HAD TO BE SENT BACK AS THEY WERE WAY UNDERCOOKED. GOT A SECOND BATCH AND THEY WERE STILL ICKY. FELT BAD AS I HAVE BEEN TELLING MINI-ME ABOUT HOW GOOD THIS PLACE IS FOR EONS. THEY MUST HAVE HAD AN OFF DAY


    DRIVING HOME, MORE STANDS. WE ONLY STOPPED AT TWO. BUT THERE ARE ABOUT 100 ON THE WAY. 


    VIEW OF THE 401


    MORE FARM STANDS


    MORE FARM STANDS
    THIS IS STUFF I SCORED AT REMARK FARMS YESTERDAY. WE WENT IN THINKING WE WOULD NOT HIT THE FARM STANDS THIS WEEK AS SCOTT WAS HERE. BUT WE ENDED UP HITTING THEM ANYWAY TODAY
    REMARK SCORE
    REMARK SAUCY SCORE
    MINI-ME PICKED THIS
    I PICKED THIS
    MINI-ME PRACTICALLY KNOCKED DOWN AN OLD LADY TO GET THIS. I THINK SHE MAY HAVE "SQUEE'D" AND THIS KIDS DOES NOT SQUEE....EVER
    REMARK BREAD SCORES=MARBLE RYE, CHEESE BREAD AND ARTISAN
    BEAUTY RIGHT. MAKES ME THINK OF THE SEINFELD EPISODE WHERE JERRY STEALS IT FROM THE OLD LADY. NOT THAT I DID THAT. I WOULD NEVER DO THAT. THAT'S WHAT I BRING MINI-ME FOR
    HUBS FAVE BREAD, HE LOVES THIS STUFF
    MINI-ME'S FAVE BREAD, SHE EATS IT BY THE TRUCKLOAD. B EATS ANYTHING. AND EVERYTHING. HE'S 23, WE MAY AS WELL JUST BACK THE GROCERY TRUCK RIGHT UP TO HIS ROOM
    NOM NOM NOM
    FARM STAND SCORE, LOOK AT THOSE ONIONS. A THING OF BEAUTY. 
    OKAY SO DO YOU THINK I HAVE ENOUGH FOOD???
    THEN I REALIZE I STILL HAVE TONS OF STUFF FROM LAST WEEK LEFT
    SERIOUSLY, WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME???
    WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND NEEDS THIS MUCH FOOD???

    Toodles and smoochies! xx

      @Dzoli-Got lots of goodies.I think she might be dutch. I've never asked her. Have to pop back this week as I ordered some special jam. lol

      @Mia- Thanks!

      @Peggy- Thanks and you are very welcome!

      @Cassie- SO good. The marble rye was the bomb!

      @Claudia- I went a little cuckoo this week. SO much food. Now need to cook up a storm with it all.

      @Anne- We made out like bandits. Bread was really good. It is flat but pretty here.

      @Ann- The corn things is hilarious. It's just what you see here. Corn or soybeans or tomatoes. Bread was killer. They make good bread there.
