I read someplace where dandelions used to be grown for food in the 1800s.
I don't eat them, but my Mother used to. They are very healthy, and good medicine too. I got a recipe for dandelion flower jelly yesterday....
Do you keep stashes of fabrics and stuff for future projects in your head? I have a huge amount of fabrics in plastic bins. I used to have them in...
Pacnorwest, you already have a good foundation for learning to sew! You do not have to complete a project in one or two sittings. Sew a bit, and...
@melody Mc, I read your post about herbicides possibly in the manure for these cowpots. Some of it was a bit difficult because I am not a farmer....

We are having signs of spring here as well Sjoerd. The grass is greening up, even though in patches. I guess in about a month or so, I will...
I have loads of canning jars, and do not need jars. I need rings, and some caps. When I looked on Amazon last year, the canning rings and lids...
Last year local places had few if any canning rings and lids. Also, I no longer drive due to disability. Otherwise, I would have gotten them...
Last year I bought what I thought was Ball canning lids and rings. They do not fit any of my canning jars because the threads do not match. They...
An idea came to me this afternoon. I think maybe a windchime? I have something good for the clapper, as soon as I find it. Maybe I have a few...
