Aha! Italian! Yes! I am a great fan of all things culinary from Italy, so that accounts for the huge fondness we have for the taste of this garlic.
Toni, you are treading on thin ice with that "pretty" comment;)! I hope you get a skiff of snow since you enjoy it and I hope we avoid it since we...
The posts about the impending snowstorm on the east coast reminded me of a story my husband told me. He was at work where the floor superintendent...
Having lived in upstate NY for years, I sympathize with all those who are experiencing cold, snow, and ice. It isn't pleasant (if we hadn't been...
Why, oh why did she think she could wear a bikini!
Eileen, great caption, although it is evident you've never had a cat;);)!
Thanks to all the good ideas, I now have seedling trays! The thrift store supplied two of the hard plastic cafeteria type trays, and I found a...
Sorry Netty, no idea whatsoever. I just know it's garlic that we will be planting year after year!
Syd, forgive my ignorance, but the figurine just below the photo of the cream pitcher (?) and on the left--is she holding a churn dasher? I love...

Funny you should both mention the "cleaning up" that birds do. Grackles are disparagingly called "Wal-Mart birds" because they can be found...
Hoping you can find them and photograph the elk! If not, it's enough that you saw them--50 elk is amazing.
What great suggestions! When I go into town on Thursday I'll hit the thrift store, and if that fails, I'll search out some boot trays. Thank you...
Grackles are called "trash birds" around here. They form big flocks, perch in trees and foul the sidewalk underneath, and have a raucous call....
Netty, instead of living for years with a color you don't like (and I agree with Toni, pink ain't my thing!) go ahead and paint now when it's so...
I have a bunch of seedlings that are ready to move under the grow lights. My problem is that I have only two trays, both holding germinating...
Frank, think of all the raised beds that could be filled with the dirt (and manure) that politicians fling! We are off to town today with a stop...
Welcome from a small farm in central Texas! We have a few cacti in the pasture, which we are trying to keep from spreading. We are avid gardeners,...
