I think I need a robot hoe! :hide :lol:

Mine's Humana. Might be changing as they made changes to this plan I'm not liking. 🤷

So I like cardboard for weed control due to biodegradable....I can get boxes from jobs, so free. Chemicals are not used BUT -- its a PITA to use. Last yr I planted and laid landscape fabric between rows, then mulched. Good results, not perfect. Looking into bigger, commercial...

It's just nights & mornings right now. 👍 A subtle reminder to prep.

I have my dad's old sharpening stone, oil & a couple pocket knives. 😊 Old! And his boatswain's pipe from Navy days. It's on a hand braided neck lanyard that he made. Back in the day he did a lot of macrame lace -- when the had fancy wood boats for the captains. A lost art now but very used...

I nuke in summer but bake in winter...heat in house ok then. They taste & texture better if baked, IMO. I have an old ricer 😁 and the wooden pusher, too. Prob 60 yr old & not used in last 40😁

@frustratedearthmother and @FarmerJamie ... Wishing the best outcome for both of your spouses tomorrow. You'll all be lifted in prayer for God's healing hands to be on everyone.

OMG....now, I'm gonna have to make those soon :old

The yr old garlic cloves are sprouting! 👍 Need to set up 3 containers to plant the cloves from 6 bulbs. Plus, those in the mail :hide Well, I should have plenty next year! 🤣 I love it anyway. Lower temps + a steady north breeze had me grabbing a jacket after just a few min outside. 😬Not...

With butter & maple syrup :drool I'm getting cravings.

How many pepper plants do you have? You're getting really good production 👍

With LOTS of good butter :drool I also love sweets. Sweets -- prefer the larger ones to bake. But having some smaller ones here, I find they're good to slice about 1/2" thick and pan fry in butter works for quick meal. Often those small ones get lightly cooked in a pot, dumped for...

I went into room over garage today. 🥹😱 Big mistake. Now I need to consider many boxes of things from Mom's house...yrs ago! Yeah. :idunno :thwinter project. Thought of you!!!! 🥴 let go!

Ya know -- now is a good time to consider how to live like many did 50 yrs ago! When you read the devastation from these natural disasters, it's pretty obvious we need to "know how". There are communities that have housing but are totally cut from electric, Internet -- roads totally gone...

Love my freezer meals!! 😁👍

Heavy dew. Can't mow until dry -- grass very thick, so takes a while. 🤷 Not in mood for much outside this morning. Gave myself a needed hair cut while waiting for outside motivation. Hey, still a "cutting" chore 😂. Now lunch time! And have some cabbage & apples to process today. For now...

The idea at build was light. But I have a row of window the entire length of each side of barn, 5.5' from ground. And fully wired with lights, sockets for more of whatever needed. So not an issue. Sun & weather has deteriorated the product surface. This barn also has a dug, concrete...

Today is mow around barnyards, with grass catcher attached, to empty into a burn pile in middle of garden area. Stuff I'm cutting I don't want to lay around. Time to straighten some posts...crete them tight. Have couple fiberglass panels on barn roof to remove and up the new tin. They've...

Not only are those survivors stronger for you, they often are more resistance to many pests & worry.
