Prepping for winter at the O.K. Chorale means – well, I’ll show you rather than tell you.

Firewood on the deck

Chuck moved the entire pile from beside the garage to the deck. This accomplishes two goals; it clears the side of the garage for our spring construction, and it moves the firewood closer to the house for the winter. I predict a few Packer Sundays next to a roaring fire. Cozy, eh?

last of the green onions

The mess in the colander is not seaweed, my friends. It’s the last of the walking onions. They started coming up again in the cool spell of August, and I pulled them as the autumn freeze approached. The bulbs, small though they are, went into the freezer. The greens boiled and simmered along with a little garlic for a delicious soup broth that never made it into the freezer. I used it up too soon.

Bunnies take shelter

The ceramic bunnies are huddling with a souvenir cup, ready for snow. As ready as they can be, I guess. See you next spring, little bunnies.
