I have found a bottle of gin to be very attractive to house goblins. When the little critter falls over dead drunk, pick him up and take him to an...
Tonight is chicken picatta, toasted bruschetta with olive tapenade, and a nice Pinot Grigio.
Pacnorwest, that is such a touching photo. Put a border of ivy around it and you have yourself a great Christmas card!
Little late posting today because we were watching the Dutch Grand Prix. Verstappen won and I was rooting for him (hear that, Sjoerd) even though...
Since the world is going to hell in a handbasket, I plan to corner the market on handbaskets. I'm sure there will be a big demand very shortly.
Happy Wednesday, or as those of you who work for a salary call it, Hump Day. The prognosticators "progged" right and we received 1 1/4" of rain...
Good Monday to you all! It is warm but with a bit of breeze. Rain is predicted for tomorrow and we are hoping the predictors get it right for...
Melody, we all have weeds, and need to dead head. But your hydrangeas are beautiful, and sharing your photos give us all hope (and incentive!)....
Beeker, I am not familiar with the 12 year cycle. Please elucidate. Scientists being paid to promote ideas and agendas. Do you have proof? If so,...
Pacnorwest, this is the first time we've seen hay being shipped in summer. Trucks hauling trailers with three, five, even more big round bales go...
My stars girl, you maintain all of that yourself? I'm impressed, and so glad you shared those photos.
Happy Friday to you all! I like Fridays--most of the household chores are done, we have a simple dinner in front of the TV while watching the PBS...
We were exploring Texas, and came across a big cat rescue. It seems some Texans think it's good to have tigers and lions in cages. These big cats...
Zigs, I love the way your fertile mind works! Great caption--short, sweet, and so apt.
Mart, so very happy to hear you got beneficial rain but no flooding! I was getting worried and about to send you a private message to ask how you...
Bless you for caring! We are fine--just got very beneficial rain in the amount of 3" over just under three days. Our rain soaked in, and now we...
Ah yes, and then there are the "gimme" garden visitors. One lady, in the middle of a garden tour, wanted to cut roses to make a corsage for her...
It's mid-afternoon on Monday, and we are having a beautiful rain! I feel for Dallas and Ft. Worth, which are flooded, but here south of the...
As much as I admire Tetters and Mart, I must disagree. Climate change is cyclical, but human activities are speeding up the process. Whatever we...
Pacnorwest, I know how frustrating getting help can be. When we had a large garden in upstate NY, so many visitors offered to come "help" me. I...
