This may be a bit late as I happened to just see the thread- but we're going to suggest the hometown favorite that's now made it into some big seed catalogs. A variety named the Clay County Yellowmeat (alternately Yellow Meat) was developed here in our county and it's DELICIOUS! It's such an...

@henless - Everything went well here but some other areas of the state saw tornadoes I believe. A good soaking rain. Glad you are all well too!

@henless - Distant neighbors over, here in Alabama we're going on third serious storm threat in less than three weeks ourselves. Easter Sunday was bad, then last Sunday was threatening too. This evening into tomorrow your system is moving this way I believe, and we're supposed to expect severe...

We will miss you, sumi. Rest in peace.

sumi, you will be greatly missed. Thank you for all of your hard work, your kindness, and your wonderful photos of Ireland you shared. I am so sorry to hear of this and it breaks my heart, my prayers are with your family. You've had such a great impact here...I'll light a lantern for you...

Big congrats! I love these photos every week

Well there's quite a few uses for them obviously! But I want to make lemonade and reduce my waste afterwards. I've got in mind to first grate for zest then juice them, but any ideas for what can I do afterwards with them? Thank you!

Thanks so much!

@ducks4you - Beautiful blooms!

Happy Easter to you all, TEG! The storms are rolling through Alabama, but hopefully that just means some thunder and a little extra rain for the gardens! We just want to wish you a very happy Easter with your loved ones- celebrate with them as best as you can. Spend some time in your gardens and...

The garden is ready to go - fingers crossed for the Hastings Prolific corn to come up strong this year. We've got Clay County Yellowmeat Watermelon on the other side hopefully too.

Currently the company we order from is not accepting orders in the midst of all this virus mess, so I'm hoping to find someone who may have a stock of Blue Clarage Dent Corn seed (in need of about 100 seeds). I'm willing to trade for seeds (we have heirloom birdhouse gourd, and frozen seed for a...

Thank you so much everyone! Those flowers are still in bloom- poor things keep getting confused. Not even kidding- early this month we had one day with a severe threat of tornadoes with 60 degree weather and the next morning we had snow flurries and really cold temps!

Yes, I was very glad not only to save cost wise in the end, but also to definitely save on shipping materials.

@flowerbug - In any other case if it wasn't sentimental, I would've scorned the price. But seeing as ordering one online was more, $3 in person was well worth it to bring back fond memories for our cabin!

Good news! We were out looking for yard sales today and happened to stop by an antique store. A quick glance and I believe I actually slightly yelled that I had found one.

Here in Alabama, the Jonquil flowers along with everything else think it is SPRING because we keep fluctuating temperatures!

thank you @flowerbug - wouldn't have thought to look up apothecary jar! :D

This may be a long shot, but I'm looking for a shorter amber/brown glass Cremora jar that looks like the pictures below. Growing up, my Grandma ALWAYS had her sugar on the table in a jar like this, and she'd scoop her spoon in it for her coffee. I have only managed to find one like it over the...
