And a very Happy New Year to you Frank! Your Garden Stew makes many people happy, so thank you. (No, you didn't make me feel old--I'm still 17 at...
I love #1--around here it's called the "Darwin Principle," especially when two good old boys do something and only one survives to tell the tale!
We had our first owl visit today. Walking out to the barn to bring the hens in, we saw a Great Horned Owl in our old mesquite tree. It flew down...
Oh yes, Parmesan Reggiano sliced super thin on top of pasta or a green salad is about as close to heaven as I'll ever get! My favorite snack is...
Like kbsrt410, I've just been planning and plotting the spring garden. The feed store has onion sets, so I'll get some next week and put those in....
Ditto Eileen's remark--so inventive, so funny, and so very appropriate! Love your stories.
