Kay, you can't kill Artemisia, Powis Castle or otherwise. We have Silver Queen and I just cut it back last week. When it gets leggy, or starts to...
Welcome from Texas! Hot and humid--we know about that. My sister-in-law and her family live on the DelMarVa penninsula, so we are somewhat...
This worked on a ceiling in an old house we renovated. We got silly putty, and used it to make a mold on part of the ceiling that wasn't damaged....
Yes, "S" hooks! Carolyn, thank you--I couldn't remember what they were called and I didn't think "squiggly hooks" was very descriptive. :oops:
Barb, I have a quiz for you--just how BIG is your pantry? With all the canning you do (and it all looks delicious--reading one of your posts while...
Sjoerd, I just freeze the individual cloves of garlic, peeled but uncut. After they thaw they are easily mashed, minced, or sliced. They look a...
Carolyn, I think it takes a better "garlic palate" than I have to tell the difference in the tastes of the garlics we plant. I like them all!...

Donna, ours are on chains suspended from hooks. I just unhook, adjust, and replace the chain links on the hooks. [img] Seedlings at end of...

Ruth honey, we are here to help! Let us know how the "tweaking" of your recipe does. We'll figure out something--traditional recipes need to be...

FBG, at least you had a slicker--there's nothing worse than being cold and wet! (Right now I'd settle for wet at any temperature). Don't catch...
Bean a Woodchuck with a Beet--you could have a reality show on TV and make a lot of money, besides becoming famous! Big beets sometimes are kind...
You could slice them, or quarter them and pickle those beets. There is a nice orange segment and beet salad you could make, or invent a new...
That must have been so frightening--but what a relief to find it was nothing dire. Please replace the battery in the smoke alarm--you're too...
Oh, captain, I wish I could have seen the caller's face when you told her about the "attack cats"! We had a "alarm system" person show up at our...
Dustin, welcome! You have found the perfect "support group" to feed your addiction to gardening. There are lots of great gardeners here ready and...
Thank you! I'm glad she is home, but sorry she is still under care. It's very kind of you to keep us all posted on Glenda. If the Stew had gold...
