I've missed your garden....big and bountiful! 😊 Today I received the garlic I ordered a week or so ago....guess I'll get that planted tomorrow. I have a container saved for it. Other 3 I planted already, more garlic. This will be 5 varieties. 2 soft neck, 3 hard neck. It will give me a...

Tree/wood cutting, splitting, etc -- now that's work! BTDT. You go, gal! 👍 Maybe mix the bag your using with a bag of coffee you like to mellow it and use it up. I drink mine straight from pot, so no enhancements to change flavor....I can relate to a bad taste. Nice of the arugula to...

Yes, pre cooked....leftover from a meal. The starches in the rice help thicken it. Plus the cornstarch. Mainly, it's fast & tasty. I only feed me -- so I can do this and enjoy it in small batches. My milk is normally fresh goat, so good cream. If not milking, I use canned evap with a...

No eggs. Just fast 😁

@Simpleterrier -- I don't have a recipe. I pour the milk into the rice, add sugar, vanilla....heat up, add a little cornstarch slurry, let it cook until thick as I want it. 🤷 Had pork chop, baby green lima beans and fried apples for dinner. Yum. I'm stuffed! Leftover apples for breakfast 👍...

They don't care if it moves! Nope, it's there "until". Hey, not everyone panicked. 🤷😂

I cut mine in half & dehydrate. They are slightly like chewing a gummy bear 😁. I put nothing on mine, just a little heat. They will dry in direct sun but, you must protect them from bees, flies, etc. so I just dehydrate!

Update -- the Dollar General stores have been sent HUGE shipments of TP to stores. Now they have no room for it and the public is overstocked, so less buying. :lol: :lol:

Hot tea here today -- getting ready to go to work. Can't wait to get in the truck and turn the heater on! 😁 Chilly & windy out but 62 inside is pretty unpleasant. Nope, not turning on heat yet. It's just a week of chill. 🥴 It is certainly making me cook foods in the oven :old I've been...

Aloe is good for many things & we think of it for sunburn. But on a trip to the Islands years ago, a native there told me to use it BEFORE the sun exposure and you won't burn. He was right!

I'm OLD!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

@CrealCritter I dehydrate figs here at home. LOVE them! Soon FB will also 😊 Also, been following the chicken fiasco for about a week. A lot of farmers left in bad place! 🤬. Glad that some of the birds are being distributed to some who can use them. Many were dying from lack of food and...

Rice & beans 😊. Xtra rice will become rice pudding.

Have a canner of pintos, 7qt, I'm waiting to steam vent so I can bring to pressure & set timer. I put 9# of dried pintos into 1/2 gal jars for protection. They're a lot of halves & not cooking them BUT bought at clearance at 17 cent a bag, will cook for chickens in winter. Good protein. Cheap...

Adjustments will take a while, sadly. But there's hope! Glad the grands will be there for love & help. 🥰 Goats 🥴. We both know they do what goats do, when they want. I looked at a few long doelings yesterday, thinking "you're really growing". Then remembered they are 2023 kids :lol: time...

@Country homesteader glad it turned out ok for you two! @The Porch more :hugs🙏🙏🙏 for you & DH.

Set up containers & planted garlic! Just 1 yr late 😁

4 trays of sliced apples. I've already eaten all I did earlier 😵‍💫 guess I need a bushel to carry me thru winter :lol: snacky- snacky-!

Sad as the news for DH is, I'm glad you let us know. We've often wondered "where you went". God is surely with you! :hugs💗

Coffee & a bowl of oatmeal to start the day. Cool & sunny. Making this an outside day. Limited work, with tractor in sick bay, waiting on parts to arrive. Prob wed/Thu...dang. Was off all week, great weather, sick tractor & 8 acres to mow 😩 maybe next weekend it will be fixed 🤷 it's holding...
