I loved your caption, Pondlady! Your sense of humor is shining!
Thank you for the information! I'll put the Reisentraubes in the seasonal garden, two plants (for insurance in case something happens to one) with...
Do you need curtains at all? If you don't want to raise the blinds, it seems you have plenty of privacy, and with the top arch of the one window...
I always thought pepper seeds had to be planted under asphalt to keep them from germinating! I've never heard of soaking them in anything except...
Well, at least the sun is out here in central Texas, even though it's still cold as kraut (I wonder where that expression originated?). I just...
I hope you don't lose power, and get to enjoy your beef and noodles, and biscuits with electric lights on! We are cold here, too. Well, cold for...
Cheryl, If you have an emergency light--a lamp with a little steel cage with a long cord that is used in repair shops, etc.--hang it in the...

Oh, wonderful find, and wonderful buy! I adore books, and especially old books. Your encyclopedias will have information still relevant today, and...

From our property we can see a railroad, and of course the engines and freight cars. Today we saw several flatbeds carrying the huge wind...
Cap'n, It's supposed to turn cold early next week, so I picked up a few ingredients when I went to town yesterday and plan to make your soup...
