    When Posting a New Thread

    Oh, I see what you mean now that I tried it. It jumps you out of the title field to the main body of the text. Maybe the forum doesn’t want people making bold text titles. Maybe it’s a consistency thing. Edit: a ha! I think I just realized why: Threads with bold titles mean you have not read...

    Edited my first response because it was incorrect after I figured out my second response.

    Too many smart devices!

    I will show this to DH. Maybe he will check out the sprocket and bar. We have already talked about sharpening the chain. That is an excellent idea!

    December Foraging

    Next time I’m chopping the chickweed, because the long stems made the whole piece come out in one bite. But I am thrilled that I have a source of leafy greens that I can add to several foods whenever I happen to be out of salad ingredients. (When they are not dormant, of course.) 🤗

    If @baymule can have chickweed tacos, then I can have chickweed hot dogs! 😂

    Well, that’s what I’ve always called it. 😊 I never heard of miner’s lettuce before.

    December Foraging

    Ok so you all got me going outside to look at my chickweed. I noticed the other day that it was actually growing in a protected spot by the north wall of my house. But it isn’t blooming very much. I don’t see any antennae. Does that mean I have miner’s lettuce, or do I need to wait for the buds...

    Too many smart devices!

    We have this, and we love it. We have a gas powered chainsaw that can’t seem to hold onto its chain. I hate gas powered stuff like that and won’t use it. DH only gets it out anymore if he absolutely has to have a bigger saw. But the DeWalt handles almost everything we need. That and loppers.

    Winter Splendor!

    I used to pick chickweed for my budgies. I never thought about picking it for myself. I’m going to have to look at it differently next spring when it grows again.

    The Many Benefits Of the Birch Tree

    Yes! I loved the white paper birch trees we had in Michigan. My favorite tree. But they don’t grow so well down here in Indiana. So we planted River birch, which is very popular here. (Too popular- I cringe at all the subdivisions where every house has a young river birch planted right up...

    In Memory of Trip

    :hugs Things usually work out the way they were meant to. Maybe moving to the new farm would have been too stressful for Trip in his condition. Maybe he was better off not going through a second transition that he didn’t understand and the “Person in Charge” knew that and arranged things to...

    The leaves on the gardenia shown are upright, and the leaves you posted hang down and look different.

    Alert on posts

    I don’t remember which sister site it was on, but I have seen posts that had a time stamp that had not come yet. I think it was a few hours in advance. It was puzzling, and I figured it must have been a glitch. You are saying the alerts button does this first thing every morning for you...
