Summer is in Full Swing!

I don't know how things are where you're at, but where I live summer is in full swing. It's super hot and my garden is in full production mode! Which for me means lots of watering with all the heat we are having. The kids may have gone back to school, but that doesn't mean it's the end for weekend trips to enjoy the plentiful sunshine!

It's time for Summer!!


Whose glad summer is here? I know I was all ready for it when we were having those sub-zero temps. But it seems like someone forgot to quit turning up that heat knob because we went from cold to TO DARN HOT! What happened to the good ole days of 70-80 degree temps you could get out and enjoy? Here in Indiana we went from cold straight to high 80's to 90's every day. So this gal isn't exactly glad it's summer anymore. But it's here so we might as well make the best of it and enjoy some summer related products at the same time!

Modern Pioneering - We can be self-sufficient!

I received this book for free from Blogging for Books for this review.


Modern Pioneering by Georgia Pellegrini is an excellent book if you're interested in becoming more self-sufficient. It starts out with the basics of how to garden efficiently. Who knew it was more than just picking what you wanted to grow and dropping some seeds in the ground? Well Georgia tells you everything you need to consider from gardening inside vs. outside to the various things you can garden and consume. But it doesn't stop there, she event tells you how to properly care for your garden to maximize your crops. Then the next chapters tell you how to harvest your garden, then how to use it after it's been picked. There are many choices from preserving, to lots of different easy to prepare recipes. Plus in the back of the book there's some excellent life skills that everyone would enjoy learning like how to clean water, how to build a fire without matches, how to change a tire, and so much more! I actually think this might have been my favorite part of the whole book. So much great information I sure would have loved to know early on in life before I had a husband to teach me several of these things.
