I'm so glad it finally stopped raining, we should have had some of our laundry out today too. Nice veggies, carrots are so good this time of year.

Mr. H. I can't believe how many sunchokes were under one plant. I am going to have such an abundance if I can store them properly. I was surprised the voles didn't eat them!:)

I heart your Pyrex bowl with the dough in it. :) I have that one too.

What a pleasure to view these pictures of wholesomeness. (I struggled to find the word to describe the feeling they evoked....) They quiet and calm my spirit as I view them.

Lovely pics....I especially enjoyed the pile of fresh veggies!!

I have not dug the sunchokes yet -- I was waiting for our first week or so of cold weather and a frost. I have heard its best to dig them after a frost but don't really know why. lol
