Beautiful fall foliage. Fall is my favorite season and that's why I got married in October. Just celebrated our 45th. Mary

Yes it is! On our way back from our cabin last week I stopped and bought 25 for $10 which was a descent price. So I've been eating them every day and just love them. I got a message yesterday from a woman here who gave me some last year asking me if I wanted some. You bet I do and these are...

Steve. we found bones last year and it might have been a child's! Well at least that's what we thought at then time. Our house being a small Victorian over 100 years old who knows. Ok, maybe it was a dog's. I kept them for a while but maybe I threw them away now. I'll see if I have a...

I had my husband take out a small persimmon tree. Though I love persimmons I finally got tired of the squirrels getting every single one of them. This year I tried clam shells on a couple of them but of course you can't possibly put one on every persimmon. Real Estate is just too valuable...

I think I saw one of the pics before. Does it come back from seed or the plant? Do you know the name or variety of it? If you don't your penance is to mail be a couple of plants in an envelope. Mary

Flowerbug, I remember that beautiful creeping thyme you have cause it's Fushia my favorite color. Mary

Bay, have you heard of Flower Mound, Tx? MY son's hopefully future in laws were visiting and we got to meet them. Very nice folks and live in Flower Mound. She said Dallas Fort Worth airport is 40 minutes from them and I don't remember the name of the other airport that is 15 minutes from...

I might keep my eyes out for cheap fares if there's still such a thing. LOL Mary

Steve. ginger tea can be quite spicy if you make it too strong. I had bought some at a tea shop and it was in very small granular but they stopped selling it. Bought a big bag of dried pieces from Chinatown but I have to cut them up smaller so that the water can infuse them better. It's kind...

With my acid reflux I no longer drink coffee. Now I drink ginger, lavender, or chamomille tea. It has to be hot and I usually microwave it once or twice cause it cools off too much for my tastes. Mary

Hi Bay, I've been without a desktop and phone screen is too small to be on here. But I'm back and have caught up with all your hard work and projects. Never knew you had wild boars on your property. It's nice to have all that free meat and good thing you have the skills to process them. You...

Oh darn Bay you had such a good group of lambs. Hope it bets better from here on out. Mary

Hi Steve, we are having a heat wave! 90* for a few days and today finally to 79*. Been on a jury trial so have neglected my garden. Did manage to prune 3 of my fruit trees one evening when it was cool. But I still have to deadhead most of my perennials. Mary

My goodness Flowerbug it sounds like you have so many weeds! lol. Is there anything you can do to control them so they don't come back each year with a vengence? Maybe put cardboard down on those paths? Mary

Wow Bay, I am just catching up on your farm. You went through a lot but it seems like you've turned the corner. Knowing you, you will be back on your feet in no time. Sorry about the loss of the lambs especially that pretty one. Hoping things dry up some and your road gets repaired soon and...

Sorry I can't answer your question but I saw a post where a commercial blueberry farmer in California planted hundreds of blueberries in 10 gallon pots. Can't think if they were grow bags or buckets. But at least the size helps. He's done it for years. Mary

Hope at least one of these trees were ones you were thinking about removing sometime in the future. It would be a blessing if they were but I doubt it. Glad you animals are safe. Mary

Bay, she's young to be graduating from high school. She seems like a very mature young lady. I said a couple prayers for you over that barn. Glad they were answered and now you have another project! As if you needed more things to do. But I know it's needed and came at the right price...

Well this is interesting. I've never had blooms when I transplanted them into the ground. I do pinch the tops off to encourage branching and bigger harvestand then let them grow a bit more before putting in ground.. Although I only plant jalapenos and shi****o peppers. Mary

Love seeing your progress reports on the little ones. Thanks a bunch for sharing. Mary
