Farmers Market Green Goddess Taco's- Vegan from HeatherChristo.com

So my mom and I tried to take the 200 pounds of plums from our tree and make jam, but we got all jammed out after 4 hours and we had only gone through like 20-30 pounds!! So we have been unloading them like crazy and the nutty thing is, our tree is still packed with them. Our neighbor started keeping bees a year or two ago and they love to hang out in my garden, my theory is that they just pollinated the hell out of that plum tree last year! I have never seen a fraction of that many plums in the 10 years we have lived here!

But the good news is that the jam is literally the best thing ever. I mixed blackberries in as well and it is eyes rolling back in the head good. We made Peanut butter (sunbutter for Pia) and Jelly topped waffles on Saturday morning and OMG.

After jam making on Friday my weekend was so quiet and relaxing, which was much needed! And then we all had to prep for the ECLIPSE!! You guys- it was the weirdest thing ever. My family was over to watch it with us and by about 9:30 it had gotten so cold and we were all covered in goosebumps and piling on the sweaters. within a few minutes of that the weirdo vertigo-motion sickness feelings started. Then came the headache which dissipated around 12. But the vertigo and disorientation kind of lasted all day and into the night until we all collapsed super early to bed. WEIRD. Anyone else have a crazy reaction?? Even the dog was SO tired.
