Thanks @Zigs! Than means a lot! Also, nice carrot bouquet! Pastinak is parsnip. I think. My German is very rusty.
I cook the chicken thighs in a slow cooker overnight, before making them into dog food. At that point, the meat just slips off, rather cleanly....
Not sweet at all! More like tart as cranberry. Im not sure they are worth the garden space, more of a novelty. So wondering what next year will...
Yes! Please publish your findings here! It's amazing that such tiny things as poppy seeds actually grow.
I got a comment that my gardening pants had a rip in them. I didn't realize how much LOL. It was a cold day, I wore warm pajamas under them, and...
You grow nice carrots @Cayuga Morning! I still have not learned how to grow carrots so nicely. This year I bought seeds for Scarlet Nantes....
The first of the Schlumbergeras to bloom. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] They spent the summer on a bench under a big fir tree. Minimal attention. It's...
Wednesday is also a volunteer day. I had a different meal route this time. Many more meals, wonky GPS, no house or building numbers in some...

@Netty, I'm sorry for your loss. I also learned of the death of my best friend. He was not responding to texts or emails, so I had adult...
@Melody Mc. I think your idea about newspaper pots is excellent. I wish I had thought of that. I should try them next season. Thanks Mel and...
Today was volunteer day, plus it was raining. Still, I managed to haul a truckload of (wet) leaves. Since they are wet anyway, maybe I should put...
Those sound good to me, @Odif!
@Beeker, those are beautiful shallots! Next question :) will you grow them from seeds, or re-plant this year's shallots for next year? My grocery...
More garden rehab. Today I completed the fruit tree border on the Western fence. That also involved digging out a narrow and weedy demilitarized...
I have in the past. Maybe I will again this year.
I've grown Shirley Poppies, Flanders Poppies, and breadseed poppies from seeds. I just sow them in plastic pots about 1 cup to 2 cup volume, and...
Mostly continued weeding and garden rehab. Repotted a couple of orchids. Now TTTM TSTM (too tired to move and too sore to move) LOL
I went BEAST BRAKE BRACE BRAVE Yesterday's was harder for me, but I forget what it was.
Planted these. [ATTACH] They were on sale last week at the hardware store, half price. I wasn't going to buy any, but my cheap side prevailed....
