By Lorelei Colton I hope you and yours had an enjoyable long Labor Day weekend. The weather was surely great, but, again, we can use some rain. I’ve been having trouble with my knee so I was hoping to give it the R&R it needed, but that didn’t happen, not entirely, anyway. Playing catch-up with laundry and housework plus I stood in the kitchen for a few hours Saturday doing up my tomatoes into some sauce – I ended up with 9 pints – which I’m going to call that “good enough” for one season. I made a trip up to the Amish market above Columbia Cross Rds and picked up a few things for us eat fresh, like green beans and a melon and – one item in particular was a sweet onion that was bigger than a softball! They have beautiful stuff. I was told that Betty Ferguson gleaned over 5 bushels of pears from her one large and one small tree in her front yard. Wow! I ran downtown to Canton early Saturday morning to their farmer’s market and purchased several bake sale items from a young lad that was planning a trip somewhere and those items, too, were quite delicious.
