While working on an outside irrigation connection this “Lawn Python” came right up where i was working and headed off to my left; down the bed! Im sure the .7in of rain we got last evening had a positive effect on my worms! I hate it when i see a Robin lift a big one, guess I'm kinda weird...
I’m happy to see some “boy” flowers in the summer squash and immediately put this one to good use.
Went over the beds with the Mantis, then smoothed them and am now waiting on some soil temp. This 10 -14 day cool/cloudy weather pattern is perfect for hardening, however; that will likely be...
Worked the compost over this morning, as i do every year; but today i took a few pictures to aid the story.
Each of these enclosures are 12 ft long and 6 ft deep. There’s 2 of them. A movable divider is used to further divide that space and i’ve settled on 5ft based on knowing what i’ll...
The peas move went well and the outside leg of the irrigation was commissioned so they’ll water daily. Moving these large pots in and out for hardening is too much work and a couple years ago i stumbled onto this which has worked well; so far. I always move them out on an overcast day and shove...
Frog legs must be an “acquired taste thing”, kinda had an off taste to me. They are a big hit at the state fair where more are probably bought on “a dare” than for culinary quality.
i’ve heard about the nerve twitch thing tossing them out of a pan but never seen it. No better than they are to...
Thanks @digitS', after butchering a couple the other day i got to looking at that loin/thigh piece and saw a similarity to a real nice pair of frog legs and that’s when the foolishness commenced! I thought to myself, “a lot of folks joke about the size of Alaskan Mosquitos but no one says...
Tough audience i guess? Never even got a rise on my month late April fools “Bullfrog Quip”!
Today’s my favorite day of the year, “The day i get the water on Auto pilot”. At this point the Greenhouse, fruit trees, strawberry’s, asparagus and rabbits are on timed, reliable, no maintenance...
We’re eating our own Parsley continually now, a little bouquet like this every day.
The Sandhill Cranes are returning, which i record for posterity’s sake and the Bull Frogs are out of hibernation now. I got a couple nice ones, like this one earlier today.
@heirloomgal, Thanks i work hard at it but i’m certain it’s “the Lord who gives the increase”. All by myself, i’m not that smart.
@catjac1975 I’ve been “into bees” for roughly 40 years and seen how this problem has grown and grown. You’re right about it being much broader than just my...
