The Farmers Wife is a Coronation St. Fan.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While watching the show,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer noticed a pie in a display case.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not just any pie. This pie is tall with a crown-like top.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Its golden colour makes The Farmer hungry every time he sees it.<br />
Coronation St. is on every weeknight so The Farmer gets hungry a lot.<br />

The Farmer has made mushroom soup from scratch before.<br />
That would not have fit into today's time frame. <br />

<br />
The addition of this years hot pepper mix is a must.<br />
The Farmer got into a groove and forgot to take photos.<br />
So imagine this, A pan of beautifully cooked ground beef.<br />
Now add a creamy mix of mushrooms and onions aided by the Campbell's soup co.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Now its off to see the doctor.<br />
DR. Oetker to be exact.<br />
These mixes are nice to have on hand.<br />
The Farmer uses them on occasions when he gets bored.<br />

Wow!<br />
The Farmer is thrilled with the result.<br />
Two pieces have been wrapped up and put in the freezer.<br />
Two more are wrapped and waiting in the fridge for tonight's dinner.<br />
<br />
There is a side story to this odyssey.<br />
What to do with left over egg wash?<br />
The farmer hates to waste anything.<br />

It all started with a walk.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer and The Farmer's Friend Mike walk the community centre track.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Its a new initiative so far, three times per week.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They do one hour walks so there are many conversations to be had.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Kombucha was one of them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer's Friend Mike's Daughter Kara got him making it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer traded a jar of <a href="http://thefarmersonlydaughtersfather.blogspot.com/2018/11/kimchi.html" target="_blank">his kimchi</a> for a SCOBY.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You will meet SCOBY later.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

A small sample was drawn off to taste.<br />
It was still sweet and tea like.<br />
The Farmer and The Farmers Wife are looking for a bit more bite.<br />
Bubbles are starting to come up around the edges.<br />
They hope this is a sign that things are working toward a more sharp feel on the pallet.<br />

A little thicker every day.<br />
The Farmer and The Farmers Wife were talking.<br />
Yes after 35 years of marriage they still talk.<br />
Most of the time they listen as well.<br />
The Farmers wife is pleased with the flavour at this stage.<br />
Therefore day 16 will be harvest day. <br />

The liquid poured out of the fermenting container cleanly.<br />
The yeast strands and original SCOBY didn't interfere with the drain spout. <br />

The new tea mix didn't sink the SCOBY when poured in.<br />
This is referred to as continuous fermentation.<br />
Eventually the SCOBY will have to be divided.<br />
The Farmer hopes to get a few more batches before having to dump it all. <br />

The set includes glass weights to hold the fermenting produce under the brine.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is also a lid with a dry airlock.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The black tube is a pump so you can open, taste, close and vacuum out the oxygen to avoid spoilage.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer chose this product for two reasons.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. The glass weights have indentations to grab on to for removal.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. The air lock lids don't require a bubbler to keep oxygen out.</div>

So now The Farmer doesn't have to wait for his crock any longer.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmers Wife will have to get used to counter top fermentation though.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The brothers of <a href="https://www.facebook.com/brothersbrewingcompany" target="_blank">Brothers Brewing</a> saved these pieces of floor joist from the dumpster</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
during renovation work on The Petrie Building in Guelph.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was a truly frustrating time during the brewery's construction.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Delay after delay of the building renovation.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A totally incompetent contractor hired to build out the brewery had to be let go.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Brothers took on the roll of contracting themselves and did much of the work as well.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So finding little gems like this was a welcome diversion from the stress of building a brewery.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They stashed two of these 135 year old diamonds in the rough away in The Farmers Barn. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Now with <a href="https://twitter.com/BrothersBrewery" target="_blank">Brothers Brewing</a> open, finding the time to work on projects like this is tough.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
So here is where The Father er ah .. The Farmer comes in.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Firstly the two boards must be separated.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They have been one for 135 years so this might take some effort.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer felt a bit of guilt at splitting these besties up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Sand and bits of small gravel fell from between the two boards.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hard to believe that it was from the boots of customers of the old pharmacy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
135 year old dirt tells no tales so The Farmer plodded on with the task at hand</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Time to remove the hand forged iron nails that bound these boards for all these years.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They would make short work of The Farmers sanding belt.</div>

Fairly flat boards that await being made into a stand up bar.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No longer structural support taken for granted by those who stand above.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After 135 years being burried under foot, these beauties will be part of the party.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Customers of <a href="https://www.instagram.com/brothersbrewingcompany/" target="_blank">Brothers Brewing</a> will now welcome them as they </div>

view the edge of these fine boards.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You will see the lines where each floor boad lay for over a century.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The faces of the boards show the saw cuts that turned a stately tree into supports for a floor that stood strong for 135 years and will surely last for 100 more.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Minus these pieces of course. They will support libations and nosh for 100 more.</div>

AAAAHHHH!!!!!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Farmer awoke to this awful sight.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Something must be done!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Winter is such a desolate time on the farm.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So <a href="http://sprouting.com/" target="_blank">Mumm's sprouting seeds</a> to the rescue.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Mumm's uses non gmo organic un treated seed. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Farmer has chosen broccoli seed this time.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
This is so simple.<br />
Even in The Farmer's aggravated state it can be done.<br />
A wide mouth canning jar, a piece of screen, an elastic band,<br />
a table spoon and a pack of seed are all you need.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
There are nine shelves but getting them all in view was to precarious.</div>

Wow almost three hours for that?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer isn't pleased with the parchment idea.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is way to much moisture being held in place.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He won't be using that next time. </div>

The Farmer checked a few times in the evening and found little change.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Somewhat upsetting.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hydro One is gonna be happy though.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer checked again just before bed and saw some progress.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He did feel somewhat defeated as he dozed off.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Morning came with the excitement of a child at </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Christmas/Eid/Hanukkah (alphabetically correct order here)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
His excitement was short lived though.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer had forgotten to reset the timer on Excalibur before retiring.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Everything was cold and wet still.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This was not a photo op.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
hence no photo.</div>

After another two hours The Farmer was able to peel the slices free of the parchment.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Four hours later the booty was piled high on The Farmers counter.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Much happier times.</div>

A happy Farmers wife = a happy Farmer</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some of the slices saved in a paper bag in the herb cupboard.</div>

GARLIC 2017</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer decided to try something different this year.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Landscape fabric.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Last fall he rolled it out and using his plywood planting template he burned holes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Using a automatic propane torch with a long hose on it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It worked like a dream.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Of course being the busy guy he is </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer forgot to take pictures of the process.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But here is the result.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

With some instruction from The Farmer.</div>

The Farmer couldn't resist making skordalia dip with this years fresh garlic to go with the fries.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Leave out the lemon juice. The sumac will give the citrus burst needed. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
That being completed.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What will The Farmer have to drink with his sumac fries?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How about some cold steeped sumac tea.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just break apart the berries, dump them into a mason jar and add water.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
12 hours later strain through cheesecloth and refrigerate.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer tried hot steeping but it became bitter.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Though the cold steeped juice can be heated without becoming bitter.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmers Son a.k.a. The Brewmaster says the seed should not be heated.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Maybe the seed free spice could be wrapped in coffee filter paper and hot steeped.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thats it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy foraging</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Into Rope</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Farmer is not a cheapskate.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">In fact if you ask The Farmers Wife</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">he tends to spend too much at times.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">That said he hates to waste good stuff.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">Everyone has an opinion of what good stuff is.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">In this case its all the twine that gets tossed out.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Sheep went through 175 bales of hay this winter.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">That's 350 pieces of twine destined for the land fill.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">Hmm what to do what to do........</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">AHA!!! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">ROPE </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Farmer may never need the rope.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">It may hang in the barn forever.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">But one day it may be needed.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">When it is called for </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Farmer may remember where he put it.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">So on with it already.</span> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;"> A bale of hay is where we begin</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
When about 24 inches from the end stop and grab a new piece.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Tuck the new piece in and braid over top of it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Repeat this for all three strands.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Make four braids after adding the three new pieces.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now cut one of the short pieces and braid over top of the stub.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Make two more braids to get past the stub then add three more.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now when you get near the end you will have staggered ends.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You may have to trim a bit off one or two of them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just enough to make the sets of three even.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer adds the new pieces when the stubs are six inches long.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This way there are about three braids before the stub is gone.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Try to direct the stub so it is braided under.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Its time consuming to do all twelve pieces.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but it makes for a nice strong splice.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When you have the desired length rope leave a foot unbraided.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Tie a scrap piece around to stop the braid from unraveling.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now you need a handy dandy rug hooking tool.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Less than $3 at W@((mar+</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Find somewhere comfortable and have a seat.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Remove the scrap. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bend one of the three strands of four over top of the other two.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That will lock them into place.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Push the tool through the braid and pull one strand through.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer tried to pull two strands through and broke the tool.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So one at a time pull the strands back through the rope.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It gets easire to follow the pattern of the rope as you go.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finish both ends this way and it will never unravel.</div>
<br />

Through the process time was taken to drain the water used to thaw the clams.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They were chopped into thirds smaller ones in half.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All the drippings were caught and transferred to the pot.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now that everything is done cooking in go the clams.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer and The Farmers Family like a bit of zip so </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a few dashes of <a href="http://www.tabasco.com/" target="_blank">Tabasco sauce</a> was added.</div>

This was a lot of work but well worth the effort.</div>

This is the best chowder The Farmer has ever had.</div>

The Festival Wagon Project</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So.....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Its been quite some time since the farmer blogged.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He retired a year and a half ago after 30 years working for the man.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So now he can't figure out how he had time to work.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Many projects have come and gone.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He is gleefuly doing things he wants to do for a change.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thing is though without work stealing his life away things don't seem as bloggable,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Its just his life now and he's loving it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Any way to the task at hand.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer's Granddaughter is two now.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She needs a ride.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not just any ride she needs a stylish ride that will set her appart from the rest.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But she can't drive , cycling is still a ways off an a tricycle is just soooo normal.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So Pops and Granny.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
AKA The Farmer and The Farmers Wife have decided to get creative.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Behold the Gypsy Caravan / Festival Wagon project</div>

The Farmer has been working on hot sauce</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There were dreams of tons of red jalapenos</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Alas only dreams this year.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Cold nights all summer and frost coming</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So The Farmer headed out reluctantly and picked them green</div>

Thank you Fran</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The nice thing about peppers is they don't require blanching</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just cut them up and freeze them</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This should last well into winter</div>

<span style="font-size: small;">So The Farmer's middle child has gluten issues</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">This need not be a life altering thing</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Farmer has been picking zucchini for a month now.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">The abundant crop has been made into soup.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">It has been BBQ'd .</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">Simmered in mixed veggies is a staple.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">It adorns salads.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">The ever popular Zucchini bread has been on the farmers table.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">Italian bread crumb coated fries were a treat.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">Today's project was:</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">Sweet Zucchini Relish</span> </span> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
10 Cups Zucchini Shredded<br />1 Sweet red pepper ground<br />4 cups ground onion<br />1 green pepper ground<br />5 tbsp pickling salt<br /><br />Mix let stand over night<br />Drain and rinse with cold water<br /><br />Add:<br /><br />2 1/4 cup vinegar<br />1 tsp dry mustard<br />5 cups sugar<br />1 tsp nutmeg<br />2 tbsp celery seed<br />1/2 tsp black pepper<br /><br />Cook covered for 30 minutes at simmer.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer used this recipe found on google.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Roughly measuring of the veggies by eye.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After looking at the volume he cut the sugar to 3 cups.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The vinegar was cut to 2 cups.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Tastes great!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer and The Farmers Wife have been busy spinning.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally there is a ball of yarn to show for the work.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://thefarmersonlydaughter.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">The Farmers Only Daughter</a> knitted a bit of the yarn. </div>

SPINNING YARN</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer spins yarn</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No not spins a yarn he actually spins yarn</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After years of not making use of the sheep's wool he has invested in a spinning wheel.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A DIZ was another addition to the fiber arsenal</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The rovings that The Farmer made previously were a bit uneven</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A house key and later a cardboard piece with a hole punched in it didn't do the trick</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This little beauty makes the spinning much easier</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With a nice even roving there are less surprises to deal with.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer And The Farmers Wife took turns taking the machine for a ride</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
An E-Spinner was chosen to take the feet out of the learning curve</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One day, after getting the hang of the hands they will try a treadle machine </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
All the rovings that The Farmer made were spun up on Saturday morning.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So its back to the wool combs to make more. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The machine was ordered and arrived 5 days later</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A short lesson on how to spin was given</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
An invitation to Sundays Spin In was offered as well</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Unfortunately its garlic season so </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Farmer and The Farmers Wife were unable to attend</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">The sheep must be sheared yearly but The Farmer doesn't use the wool.</span></span></div>
