From the garden we harvested green beans, tomatoes, beets and cucumbers.

From one hive we harvested 8 frames of honey and wax. Now the bees are cleaning up the frames.

From the coop we collected 11 eggs. Only 8 of them made it home though. It seems that Ranger learned a new trick. He figured out how to steal eggs out of the egg basket. They didn’t break until he stepped on them. I’m not sure why he decided to take them – either he thought he had found a new toy or he was telling us he wanted to eat. Crazy Dog! LOL!
Love this! It looks so wonderful.

I was surprised that Ranger could pick up an egg in his mouth without breaking it. We are still laughing about it.

Honey is pretty, your garden and bees are producing like crazy and is the third egg being cradled by the angel Anne wrote about it?

It sure is a bountiful year. My husband harvested probably 50 more lbs. of honey this weekend out of two hives. There is still one more hive to harvest. They say that angels can come in all forms though I haven’t yet thought of Ranger as an angel. LOL! I’m afraid he got all three of the eggs that we didn’t bring home that day. Anne’s angel egg still remains a mystery.

Ranger figures he is still the “new kid on the block” which gives him extra liberties. But I am sure he is behaving better now, having settled into a routine with the family. Ranger won’t like eggs if they break and are all gooey – he won’t do that again. Yes, the angel egg might remain a mystery for a while too.

He is getting so much better than when we first got him. I’m am just so surprised the egg didn’t break in his mouth. 🙂

I remember that you could have called him “Ranger the Rambunctious” … I’m surprised too because had that happened, you would never have to worry he’d take one again.

He still gets rambunctious – so much so that he will tire himself out for the next day or so. LOL!

Yummy, everything looks delicious. Definitely worth all of the watering you had to do this year. The apron story reminds me I have a kids egg apron pattern. I need to try that out and make you a couple for your grandkids .

Absolutely worth it!!! I’ve seen some crocheted patterns too. It’s a lot of yarns for something that wouldn’t be used much.

That is amusing that Ranger took the eggs.
Your tale made me think way back to the time my folks kept chickens. We never had many. My mom always wore an apron in the morning while she was doing housework and cooking. I can remember her coming back in he house with the fresh eggs in her apron. I hadn’t thought of that in 60 years.

Thanks for sharing that memory Anne. my husband and I were recently talking about how women use to carry eggs in their apron.
