In the meantime I took a bunch of wheat from our field and met her for lunch Friday (she lives 3 1/2 hours away and we picked a town in between). She thought she was getting wheat elsewhere and I happened to post a picture on Facebook of one of our combines in the wheat field and she contacted me right away. She is making ornaments out of it along with the thousands she has in progress with her committee of all kinds of state symbols. She brought some for my students to assemble as well. This is the project she is working on.
Here is the pic I posted. The next day I was actually driving this combine! We have been farming for 30 years and I have never had to drive before. Both of our hired hands wanted the day off. I wasn't about to drive the semis!
Today I made relish out of my garden cucumbers, zucchini and peppers. I usually have onions but had to buy those this year. This relish will last a couple years! I also made zucchini bread. I have some food allergies, so this is the recipe I used. It is really good and I forgot to take a picture! I am severely allergic to dairy and eggs.
The first week of school was interesting, and I was exhausted! Hopefully we will get into a routine soon.

The blocks all look good together. Not your Normal colors, Who gets this one? Hope the Tree skirt starts looking better as you go. I never had to drive any big equipment for the Farm. Only had to be gopher and run for parts.
Fun to see all the blocks together. I had to do that too....just to see. :)
What an interesting project your cousin is doing. I'll have to try to check back at that web site to see more.
