The high today was -14F (that's without the windchill). Brrrrrrrrr! A bunch of people at work couldn't get their cars to start today, because of frozen fuel lines/pumps. I am not looking forward to going outside tonight!

Awwwww! They are so cute! :love How old are they?

I eat gingerbread. Just not the kind you build with. I like soft gingerbread or cake. With chocolate

It took about 2 weeks. I let my chickens eat it - there are pictures of them destroying it on my blog. It was really, really hard, so I don't think anyone would want to eat it. Glad you all liked it! :love

Hi there! :frow I'm in Minnesota. We've had a lot of snow. It's snowed every day for the past week. I have a small (5 foot high) snow wall built on both sides of my driveway. The roads are pretty bad. I went to visit a friend in the country today and the road was very, very icy. Lots of...

I thought you all might like to see the gingerbread garden I made. If you want to see more pictures check out my blog in the link below-

:D Thank you!

Thanks for the nice comments everybody! We had even more snow this morning :tongue It's really heavy and wet.

We had a snowstorm last night. 1 1/2 inches were still on the ground this morning. Whaa! my garden is dead :( I posted some pics of the snow garden on my blog

I made white tomato jelly. I posted the directions and pics on my blog

You're using a pressure canner - right? Just cut up the beans, put them in the jars, add salt (if you want) 1/2 tsp. Fill jars with water to 1/4 in jar head space. Can at 10 lbs pressure 30 mins? I think but I'm not sure. I'll check my ball blue book when I get home from work, if you want me to.

The best way to put your fears to rest - get a good canning book and follow the directions exactly. I recommend the Ball Blue Book. It lays everything out and is easy to follow. Good luck!

Update: It's hard to believe that the garden on the first pg and these pics are the same garden. What a difference a few months make! Pond (It's in there!) Stream Pond

My white tomatoes I love these orange ones. They are huge! I have another pic where they look like mini pumpkins.

I would love to see everyone's pics, but I am at work and I can't see them. So frustrating! Stupid web filter!

Yes! I wish it was monthly too!

I love my Mother Earth News mag too. It has such a lot of interesting articles and pictures. I read it cover to cover as soon as I get it.

I like Jung's and Baker's Creek for seed catalogs.

I agree with you about earliness. That's how I picked my tomatoes this year. Last year I tried to grow brandywines and pineapples, but I only harvested a few tomatoes before the frost hit. This year if it had a short growing season AND it was colorful/tasty I picked it.
