Project 365 Day 227: Food from Family and Friends


Our trip to visit family and friends in Eastern Iowa today resulted in the nice side effect of getting some homegrown vegetables to bring back with us. We first stopped through Anamosa to visit Amy's parents, where we got some frozen sweet corn, along with freshly-picked cucumbers and beets from the neighbor's garden. We left there for Lisbon to visit friends Fritz & Charlene where we got even more bounty in the form of squash and hot peppers. Thanks to our family and friends for all the fresh food! And thanks to the awesome Ames municipal water system workers for getting the water safe to drink ahead of schedule! We have flushed our home's water system according to the city's instructions, and starting tomorrow we can resume our version of normal life and figure what to make for dinner this week to use up ingredients.
