Dumb question, how do you keep your basil? Dry it? Freeze it? Mine is prolific as well so I need to figure out the best way to store it. Thanks!

They're beautiful! Enjoy!

Huh, that is disappointing, isn't it? I guess the good size is that it's filling and doesn't appear to have calories either.

Here is my favorite site for making jams and jellies. http://www.pickyourown.org/jam.htm Enjoy! Jo Ann, another homeschooling mom :)

Ugh, we're on a well and with power failures, I know what it's like to be without water. I hope it's restored quickly!

Gorgeous garden! You are inspiring me! :)

Thanks for the suggestions. We're in zone 5b/6 depending on what site you read, in a bit of a valley so probably more 6. Yes, I've read the comments about how hard peach trees can be for the home gardener. Unfortunately, a friend gave me bags of peaches off her trees last summer and sold me on...

Some years ago I planted dill, not knowing swallowtail caterpillars eat it. We were able to watch 3 or 4 caterpillars transform, very cool!!

Hi all, Question that I haven't been able to answer with google. We have two peach trees that a friend gave us 4 or 5 years ago that were started from a pit by him. They have done ok, got leaf curl last year, I sprayed it during the winter on a warm day. They both seemed to be doing ok. I did...

Ugh, I feel your pain. Well, I guess now at least you know. Onward and upward! :)

If you do plant blueberries, they prefer an acidic soil. Ours is very alkaline so I added sulfur when I planted and they seem to be doing well. Better than the ones I planted last year without adding sulfur, anyway. :)

The fairy houses and gardens are adorable! Great work and creativity. I am in awe. :)

Nice looking garden and love the pics of the offenders and meathead. :lol:

They aren't vibrant and fragrant, but delicate and beautiful- columbine. My jacob's ladder has done very well in shade.

I don't think it's zucchini since its leaves are rounded.

We have mulberries and we've gotten quite a bit of fruit from them the four springs we've lived here. I haven't noticed the pattern of fruit one year, none the next. This year I'm going to try making jam from them. In the past, I've made desserts with them and they've been quite tasty. :)

Awesome work! You have inspired me!

Honey? Is that you? ;)

Yum! This looks terrific. I was thinking that I'd have to wait a while til I had a zucchini, but I remembered I bought one at the store. Woohoo! Thanks for my dinner tomorrow. :)

I'll make guesses. This is one of those things that's done to taste. My Italian BFF taught me how to make this and there aren't written measurements. I usually put olive oil in the 9 x 13" pan to start when I roast the onions. 1/4 c. cup per pan (I usually make this in 2 pans)? If there's still...
