I was going to send a private message, then thought there are so many good cooks on this forum, that I'd beg a recipe from DanielW on an open...
Daniel, Early Sunglow does very well for us. Hope it does for you, as well! I tied up tomatoes and cucumbers, did a bit of weeding, petted Timi...
Yes, I did. After we picked dill, we went back to the asparagus patch and I showed her the difference between leaves, stems, and growth habit. I...
Sjoerd, Daniel, thank you both for your replies. Keeping occupied with purposeful activity--good advice and generally I can do it. Today I'll be...
Wish I could say this is a happy Wednesday, but in light of yesterday's slaughter at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, I haven't been able to...
AAnightowl, your post about trying dill with the asparagus reminded me of a "dill incident" a couple of years ago. A lady stopped by and asked if...
Droopy, I've only made dolmades with young grape leaves. I didn't know hosta leaves were edible. The things one learns here! Do you put dill and...
Happy Tuesday to you all! Just catching up on inside chores, and am putting off tying up tomatoes until Thursday. Rain, wind, and possibly hail is...

Melody, watering from the rain collection cubes isn't difficult, just time and muscle consuming! We fill buckets which we take to the plants,...
The predicted rain hasn't arrived yet, so we watered the herbs well and then dug and hung the garlic. We got back to the house in time to watch...
Oh boy, I just knew today was special! Happy Birthday to you.
I picked green beans, examined the garlic (which is next on the to-do list for picking), watered the tomatoes and got the very last of the sugar...
Odif, my astute count of your strawberries is--a lot! Well done, and twice that many tomorrow? Wow!
If you are chased by a pack of taxidermists, do not play dead!
Sjoerd, so many Texans could use that "kooching" in vocabalary and gramer! Wonder if the kooching is offered on-line? You can send Alberta to us!...
Anightowl, black walnuts contain juglone, which is toxic to many plants. Follow Mart's advice and don't plant anything near a black walnut tree....
Went into town to do grocery shopping, with mixed results. No skin on, bone in chicken breasts, no Boston butt pork roasts. I spoke to the manager...
