Quiche from my #backyardfarm. Eggs, tomatoes, onions & basil #growyourownfood. All I need is a goat (or 2 or 3) to make my own cheese.

I got called on to hem a dress & my trusty 1947 Singer sewing machine did the job. It is an engineering marvel & enabled women to earn money independently. Almost 80 years old and still humming.
