Emduff, I hadn't thought of trying chives on the windowsill--good idea! I took cuttings of my basil and rooted them, then brought two in for the...
Cayuga, I do hope you are feeling better. You seem to be a person who thinks a bit of fresh air and yard work is therapeutic--good for you! I have...
Netty, good idea to wait until the roads are less dangerous. We here would miss you terribly if you were stuck in a snowbank somewhere:crying:!...
Oh dear, that is bad news. Please pass all our good wishes on to Kildale's wife, who can pass them on to him. I hope his hospital stay is brief...
Doghouse, thank you for the reply. My husband took a look at the feeder, decided the "sling" could be made from some left-over plastic fencing we...

Gee Mart, if you get tired of eating your "experiments" I could force down a pizza or two!
We have three suet feeders out. The local hardware store calls us when the suet cakes are on sale, and we get the all-purpose, no melt kind and...

So glad you are home! Remember, being fast isn't as important as getting to your goal, so don't worry about being a bit "slow" getting about. You...
We are having a bright, sunny day with current noontime temperatures in the low 50's. My dear husband took down the fans in the chicken coops and...
Carolyn, your post made me want to run out and get another pumpkin and try the "no stem cutting" method! One can learn so much here (and remember...
Now THAT is a catchy title for a post! Here "Bare Naked Ladies" are a type of lily that suddenly appears, puts out a lovely red bloom, and then...
Oh my, what great, great news! Kildale at home, watching birds, and his wife must be so very relieved! Thank you Eileen, for keeping us all...
