NO PESTICIDES, HERBICIDES, FUNGICIDES

In making new friends on Steemit, I happen to be lucky enough to run into @dandays and @puravidaville. As our back and forth banter, centering around each other's posts, we became more friendly, I was invited to join in on the fun involved with participating in #fff.

I explained to them that the only thing I made with some degree of profeciency was Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches.

Being an extremely talented writer and comic, #dandays created a post that once again had me laughing out loud. The post included the culinary skills needed to make a PDJ. Enjoy a good laugh, check it out.

Well, here we go. Although I do very little cooking, I have been known for whipping up a pretty good breakfast.

Nice thing about breakfast is
eat it at noon, call it lunch
eat it after 5PM, call it dinner,
or call it tea as #gguy773 does

The title of this entry has everything to do with trying to improve the quality of what I consume, by including as much organic food as possible.

Lets start out with the home-fries

This was our first year planting potatoes.

Harvested over 125 pounds
Keep most of them in cold storage, should last for at least 6 months
Keep a couple of pounds handy by storing them in an extra frig on the porch.

.

Onions also from garden.
Harvested 50 pounds
Handle storage of onions, like potatoes

Lets get busy!
cover bottom of skillet with extra virgin olive oil
Black peppercorn
Sea Salt
Paprika
Just a moment please, we need to back up,
cover the bottom of the skillet in EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL only
DO NOT COVER entire bottom in,
BLACK PEPPERCORN
SEA SALT
PAPRIKA
OK, now that we got that straight Lets get Busy.
Oh, just one more thing,
in reading a number of the #fff posts,
I realized I'm the guy that just fell off of the turnip truck.
From here on in ingredients shall be added at your own discretion! ✔✔✔
Chopped up 4 of the smaller sweet white onions.

Bring oil to a nice temp, please no specifics.
Throw in the the spuds

Cook the tatters while adding the stuff from above
The Paprika will make it look like you know what your doing
just pay a little attention
and the paprika will make those suckers turn a golden brown

Enough with the spuds
Hell, you can get them with an Egg McMuffin for a buck three eighty

Moving on
With no offense intended
for those of you who's diet is void of meat
WARNING
Some of the following material may be too gruesome to watch
unless viewing with a carnivora
parental discretion advised
brief nudity 😜😜😜

VENISON

One a more serious note
All wild game is hunted in accordance too the law
The wild game that provides our family with a very rich source of nutrients
is always RESPECTED
With today's hunting weapons
either bow or rifle
a good sportsman
will make a quick kill
We do not hunt for trophies
we hunt for survival

REMEMBER THE TITLE!

NO PESTICIDES

NO HERBICIDES

NO FUNGICIDES

These are the back straps of the deer

They are cut into smaller pieces

Flash fried with as much butter as your heart can handle

Kept some of the onions that I used in the spuds
added them to the Venison

Also cut up some mushrooms
add to venison

Forgot to take pic of mushrooms

To tell you the truth
I'm having a hard time handling this
It is taking all of my will power
to avoid eating everything
at this very moment

Next up the big sweed's all time crowd favorite
😜👍😃💖THE BLUEBERRY BOMB😍💋💕😁

On the Egg Lady's property, you will meet her in a moment
there is a blueberry patch made in heaven
Harvest time lasts for about 3 weeks
you could pick for 12 hours a day
for the entire 3 weeks
and it would look like a berry had never been plucked

This year's yeild was fantastic
Vacuum packed 44 pounds

Warm up the griddle
it's time to make dah BOMBS

Boy the camerawoman is going to be asking for a raise

READY

Not yet, a good BOMB needs a good Maple syrup

As the hours flew by the day only took on more splendor

Tapping the trees is a family affair

With my son @ryan313 children
@ajbasketball3 and @owenmaxj3

Right gravity
ready too bottle

End product
All natural Maple syrup
Had a good year
finished product 3.5 gallons
Doesn't sound like much
but at a ratio of 50/1
that is a lot of boiling!

Time to visit the egg lady
She is my wife's cousin

A sign I made for her
bartering is a beautiful thing

THE BOSS OF THE CONCUBINES

THE HAREM

Child labor
My Granddaughter
@ryan313 youngest of three

Looks as though she got pecked
while gathering
Never dropped an egg
That's my girl

THE BOUNTY
The different colors and shades
make dying Easter Eggs a snap

Lets get busy

Cooked 4 of these
-fff- (Farm fresh Fowl) eggs

Over easy

Final product
now ready to photography
Each dish hanging out in it's own bowl
covered to stay warm
My beautiful wife says
"presentation is everything"

Well, after placing each item in just the correct position
taking pictures from every angle
lunch had well passed
and dinner, or "Tea" time
whichever term you choose
was upon us

In the forefront of my mind I knew
the s__t was getting cold

Throughout the photo shoot
nothing was safe

Ten minutes later
here are the remnants of my entry into #fff

WELL THAT WAS

PESTICIDES
HERBICIDES
FUNGICIDES
