Thanks all. I thought he was pretty cool. I had to look up what kind he was and yes, I believe So Lucky is right. A Pickerel Frog is what I came up with too. I like the idea that they only live in a healthy environment (thanks baymule), I'll take that! I think that a lot has to do with the...

I know monty! I understand where your coming from. It only takes a matter of years for the same situation to go from Awwwww....to Ughhhhhh!! :lau He is super cute and huggable. Thought you would all get a kick out of it.

Found this frog in our garden during vacation. He was pretty big. About 3.5 to 4 inches long. And he was sooooo beautiful. The brown spots were actually copper color and shimmered in the sun. I later saw some others that were the same, but smaller. I thought he was too cool not to take a...

Yikes! OK Thanks. Maybe I will see if I can do some creative braiding or something. It is becoming invasive at this point. If it was flowering I wouldn't mind. :D I'll try the fertilizer too! And maybe some messing with the roots in the fall. Thanks again.

Boy, what progress in a weeks time! Very excited for you.

That about sums it up! Any ideas why? It's in full sun, leaves and runners grow well, but never any flowers.

This is what my newest little garden helper really likes to do while I'm in the garden. He discovered the joy of grass and they joy of a redneck swimming pool!

Going on staycation. So I won't have access to a computer for 10 days. Whoot! Whoot! But ya'll have a great week and happy gardening!

Because you have a little bit of heaven on earth right there and you know it!!!! :love

It was! I tossed it in the crock pot, glugged some balsamic vinegar over it and then dumped in a large jar of black current jam that I made last year. It cooked in the crockpot for about 10 hours and fell apart like pulled pork. And the PEAS!!!! Oh my goodness. I don't like peas. But now I...

Is it Santolina? Many different pictures if you google it. They all look a bit different but maybe?

:lau :lau :lau :lau This is cute! How can monty say no with all of us watching? (was that part of the plan dewdrops? We won't tell him ;) )

I told the farmer last night that I wouldn't be surprised to have palm trees start sprouting! Every day it's either raining or it's muggy, muggy, then a big thunderstorm rolls in. Some of these storms have been pretty powerful with very strong winds.

Could you pop the plants out of the pots and put a screw down through the bottom of the pots into the porch railing?

Rain, rain, rain...slugs, slugs, slugs... :rolleyes: But on a happy note; I was able to harvest a huge bag of 3 different lettuces for a lady I work with this morning. And noticed that my peas will be ready for pickin for tonight's dinner of home raised pork roast which is currently in the...

Seriously? Home made ice cream in 20 minutes? That is a recipe for disaster. Disaster for my hips that is! The farmer and I frequent a local home style ice cream stand at least once a week. If I could make my own in 20 minutes I would look like a snow man in no time. Please enjoy that ice...

Congratulations to you and your wife! How wonderful! I saw this on one of my friend fb the other day. This of course is only a partial list. But a good place to start anyway. Edited to add: my twisted sense of humor really likes #9! :lau

We bought a really nice (expensive) Bosch front loading washing machine a few years ago. Worked well for about 4 months. Then it started calling for water all of the time. It never really got the clothes soaking. Front loaders are intended to use less water. But I can say personally, I...

Thanks Petey for the ranch recipe! I will give that a try. Sounds delish! Jarred, home made yogurt is soooo easy a way better then store bought. It's funny, we eat what we raise or what we hunt and we have been out of beef for quite some time. (like a year) We eat mostly venison for red...

There isn't anything about me that I would want to change. I know I am who I am for a reason. (something that has taken me a long time to understand) But what I would like is to have more hours in the day. In reality, there are 24. No more, no less. The same for everyone. So what I am...
