This spaghetti was made with homegrown tomatoes, onions, garlic and basil. The non homegrown stuff was: the noodles, olive oil and the organic chicken. The sauce was cooked in the SunOven as well. It was yummy

Busy, busy, busy!
Here's both of our SunOvens. One is roasting a whole chicken, then other is baking some yams for snack-time.
Here are some of the plants that have moved FROM the HH house in the front rows, the back rows are plants that are supposed to go TO the HH house to fill the spaces of the plants we dug up. Why the swap? The front row plants are all edibles, the back row plants are not.
We're making room for 6 raised beds that are 3' x 8'. There will be a seventh bed that will be about 2' x 12'. Here's the first of the 6 that are going in. T is digging the ditches to make space for the second one. Thank you T for working so hard. (He had sore leg muscles the next days from digging so much!)
Here's another angle
In order to make room for the 6 large beds, we decided to move the Kumquat tree after much thought. We hope it will survive the transplant as it is getting warmer already. Dig, dig, dig and dig some more... whew!
Yes! We did it!

Seeing Double?
Yes, you're seeing 2(two) Sun Ovens! One is my Mom's that she is not using right now. Cooking in these twin beauties is 1)a very large organic chicken roasting, and 2)some vegetables in the chicken's broth. I started late, so we didn't finish cooking the bird entirely in the sun ovens and ended up finishing them in the conventional oven, but I think it saved some natural gas, than had I just used the conventional oven.
