Kathy, Many towns allow a certain number of hens. Check with the town offices to find out if backyard chickens are allowed and what the...
Our young hens are starting to lay eggs fairly regularly. Here is a comparison of their "output" compared to a full-grown hen's offering. [img]...
Barb, I have the feeling that just looking at the photo of the feast Donna has prepared will put pounds on the viewer (and be worth it!). Do hope...
Wow! Be ultra careful Barb, and your husband, too. Beekeepers put a piece of bacon on the electric fence, because a bear's coat is so dense they...
Opossums don't bother our compost nor our vegetable garden. They usually just wander around looking bemused. They will eat vegetables, but prefer...
So Donna, are you expecting a crowd? Your table is lovely, and the food will be delicious. I'd bet you are enjoying every minute of the cooking...
Barb, go into someone else's kitchen and start breaking things! :twisted: Preferably someone who doesn't know where you and your toads live . . . .
Eileen is right, it is pink Mulhy. It should be available at a native nursery. Here in central Texas it reseeds itself fairly easily (ours took...
From Pampered Chef to Pampered Toad! A very clever use, and your loss is the toad's gain.
Just so y'all don't think we Texans don't suffer a bit, here is a photo of our front yard last February: [img] Snow, February 2011 ( photo /...

Thank heaven I'm in Texas, thank heaven I'm in Texas, thank heaven, well you get the idea. When we lived up north my snow shovel was my friend....
Those may be late, but they are gorgeous! Flowers at this time of year are especially appreciated, aren't they?
In Utah, I'd wait until early, early spring to transplant a rose. The roots will need to get established before the ground freezes if you do it...
Frank, Move over Justin Bieber, Frank now has the biggest fan club on the planet (and for better reason, may I add). This is a useful,...
What a great harvest, and so useful during the winter months. One of our favorite meals is ham and beans and cornbread, but we buy our dried...
I have seen a "picker" which is a wire basket on a pole. The person on the ground extends to picker to the fruit, gets it into the basket (more...
My eyes are watering just reading these posts! :setc_070:
Great ideas! We have a "craft time" to entertain the kids while their parents shop for Christmas gifts at the food pantry, and I think we'll try...
Gosh, that sounds good! I'm going to print it out, and as soon as it gets cool enough to enjoy soup, I'll make some. Yours will make quite a nice...
