Time to plan out your family meal. Hopefully it will include lots of veggies. We have a nice salad mix. My brother in law insisted this be included in our Thanksgiving meal some 30 years ago. It has become a vital part ever since.
We have a huge basket of veggies for you all to gather anytime today after 11:00. We got most of the harvest done yesterday and just need to bag up the salad mix for today. You will get radicchio and escarole to enjoy. The brussels sized up a bit. We decided to give you several fennel, daikon and shallots to include in your meal. The squash is huge so we gave you a usable piece. There are plenty of herbs to get your meal flavored up.
We hope you will enjoy your time with family and friends. There is so much to be thankful for and we choose to focus on this as we prepare for what is to come. Sending warm thoughts to you and your family from ours.
We have evergreen wreaths and swags for sale in the barn. I have a whole new cupboard full of ceramics fresh out of the kiln.There are dried flower wreaths and bird feeders to purchase.

Celeriac mash:
How to Make Celeriac Mash
This simple celeriac puree requires just 30 minutes of prep and cook time.
- Peel the celery root with a swivel peeler and use a paring knife to cut out any dirty skin from the holes on the surface. Rinse off the peeled celeriac.
- Slice into cubes.
- Add the celery root, shallots, and garlic to a large pot. Pour in just enough vegetable broth to cover the veggies. Bring to a boil then cover, reduce heat, and cook for 20 minutes.
- Drain off most of the broth. Add the milk and butter to the pot and heat for a few minutes until melted. The goal here is to make sure you’re not adding cold milk or butter to a dish that’s supposed to be served warm.
- Carefully transfer to a blender.
- Blend until smooth. Taste and adjust seasonings as desired.
