LOL, thanks Chills!
I took a new picture of him the day before yesterday! As you can see, he's very nosey. Its difficult to get a good clear picture of him.
Hi, Natalie! It's great seeing you as well. My grandma is doing well, thanks for asking. Her neuropathy can be a pain but she's a strong lady and doesn't let it keep her down. We were actually talking about making a "mini orchard" yesterday on one side of her property. We're fruit addicts, so we...
Thanks, Everyone!
He's a very spoiled rooster. My brother was eating a snowcone on the porch ones and Chickzilla sat next to him and my brother wound up sharing it with him! He's a favorite here, everyone loves him. Except for my sister, who thinks he's out to get her. :lol:
Greensage, he is...
Well Well Well,
My buddy gave me some almonds the other day. So today, after filling a 22 gallon tote with walnuts, I decided to crack them and see what I could get. Last semester, I hatched 16 Cornish X chicks out of eggs my teacher got directly from Foster Farms. I kept 6, processed 2 and 4...
I have a canning book by Ball my grandma bought me for my birthday. There is a recipe in it for BBQ Sauce and it says: Process half-pints and pints 20 minutes in a boiling-water canner. So I would say yes, you can.
:gig :lau
That is hilarious! I bet if you stuck some walls around that bucket and called it an outhouse, he wouldnt have complained! Some people just have no imagination. :lol:
Congrats, Ann! This was my first year growing onions and I went a little wild too. I bought 2 bags of sets from Walmart and although they said each held about 60 sets, I got 93 in one bag and 88 in the other. I've got bags and buckets of onions in the cellar now, many bags and bucket, haha...
I've noticed that too. It smashes anything that isnt firm. I use it to seal my bags of frozen mice for my snakes, and I wasnt paying attention while packaging up babies once. It was a big, squished, icky mess. :sick
Thank you all for your kind words! Im glad you all like my photos, it makes me feel really good knowing my work is appreciated! Good luck with your gardens!
Thank you, Hattie!
I was really happy with my harvest. Some days I get nothing, and the next day I get so much, its unreal. I hope your garden does great, it sounds like you've got a lot going on! I find it so interesting when I read about others who have nothing ripe right now, or just a few...
Man, I havent been updating much! Last year I updated photos all the time. I believe it was because I only saw my garden every other day, so I was so amazed at the growth. Now its in my own backyard, so I see it all the time. :lol: Anyways, today I picked a lot!
I got:
20 onions (10 red, 10...
Thanks, HiD! Isnt that the truth? I couldnt go swimming or anything, its horrible. I still havent gone swimming, and probably wont for a while since Im congested. I still dont have much of an appetite either, but Im feeling better.
Hey C_B, thank you. I hope your sister feels better soon...
It seemed like mine took forever as well! Then I went out one afternoon and noticed my first ripe one. So I checked my other plants and picked 20 more! I had one that had a dozen ripe ones right in the center of the plant that I hadnt even noticed. Just wait, you'll see green one day and an...
Hi folksss....
Nope, no swine flu, haha. Im feeling a lot better today. Im still congested, but Im doing well. I went outside for a little bit yesterday to show my grandma my garden and it wore me out! I was totally dead the rest of the day, so Im definitely still in the process of getting...
I've been stuck inside for the past 3 days with a sinus infection, a high fever and a slight case of vomiting. Not to mention a HORRIFIC cough. My garden is going great, and I cant even go outside. My mom has me on lockdown until Im better and its driving me mad. My dad watered my garden for me...
Hi Hattie! :frow
I picked 6 more, so definitely a good haul! We've got two bowls full of them on the counter. My mom said her boss has called dibbs since she missed the last batch. :lol: Thank You! My parents are definitely proud of my garden. I figure anyways, they brag enough. :gig
Thank You! I picked 6 squash, 4 zuchinni and 3 peppers yesterday. And that's with less than half of my squash and zuchinni producing.... Im in trouble! :lol:
Thanks everyone!
Ann, that chair gets a lot of use! I sit out there all the time, usually while Im watering with a good book and something to drink. My dad tells me its not going to grow any faster if I sit out there and watch it, but I've caught him in that chair a few times! :lol: Im so glad...
