Fifty pound bags of chicken feed, lifting small farm equipment, and heaving about large limbs are no problem for me. Then why, oh why, can't I...
Ronni, no pictures of the current baths. One is under renovation and so far is just bare walls and plumbing sticking up from the floor. The second...
KK, that newly refurbished bathroom is a thing of joy! Now you can tackle the other two, knowing that you have this bathroom remodeling down to a...
Cheryl, that must be a horror to clean! However, you have made the best of it with your decor. My mother had our bathroom done in pink plastic...
I have a "Rainbow Mix" of bell peppers started. I saw the packet at a farm and ranch store, and couldn't resist. Spring will arrive, FBG. If not...
This ad appeared in today's local paper and I immediately got depressed: You are cordially invited to our Widowed Valentine's Luncheon. If you...
Philip, I almost cried when I saw the pictures of the flooding! Please, please do not overdo with the sandbags and such--you are too important to...
Ronni, we are putting up wire shelving to store towels in the bath we are working on now. The wire shelving doesn't give as much of a "closed in"...
I hope her tiny feet didn't get too cold! My chickens, who had never experienced snow, refused to go outside when they saw the "white stuff". My...

Carolyn, this has been the coldest winter in our area since 1909. We set a record of 52 days (so far) below freezing, with expectations of more...
Donna, you have given a great idea for us here on the Stew. Now we can leave our precious seedlings in the care of your wicking system, and not...
The temperature is not going to get above freezing here today, and I just saw a pig fly by . . . .
Carolyn, I like the Impressionists because the paintings are slightly "romantic" in that the edges are blurred, the subjects contemporary and give...
My husband and I drove to Ft. Worth to see The Age of Picasso and Matisse exhibit at the Kimbell Art Museum. The Kimbell always mounts great...
Let's start a "Mug Shot" thread! As we get our mugs, we can post a photo of them, with our own captions, avatars, etc. Eileen, Toni, and Frank...
For a 12' by 12' plot, you won't need a pick-up truckload of manure. The big plastic carry-alls with rope handles (trugs) will serve you well. A...
