I mean freezing foods at the peak of ripeness in summer. Here are my bags of peppers diced, cut into strips, and even halved ready for the freezer.

I have a love-hate relationship with my garden. The love comes when I can walk out the back door and grab fresh food for dinner. The hate part comes when all the garden produce seems to come on at once and I need to do something with all the food. It is not that I don’t enjoy all that food, it is just that preserving the food or getting it ready for long-term storage takes time. A few weeks ago when I went out the back door I could see it was time to harvest the carrots. I must admit I’m not a big fan of carrots –especially the bagged baby carrots from the grocery store. I think they are pretty blah without any flavor. However, I do like to grow a few carrots in the garden for snacking and to use in soups, salads, and side dishes throughout the year. And home-grown carrots have great flavor. I pulled out the shovel and started digging.
