Yep. Half leghorn half Cali grey. The CWxBO made some really pretty chicks. I bought them from Whelp hatchery. They are much smaller than the leghorn but very productive. They started out flighty but an occasional gift of left overs fixed that. I can call them and they will come running or...

My daughter just said I look like a walking corndog!

I had a reaction to singulair back at the end of May and my Dr took me off. The allergist I've been seeing for the past 4 years couldn't get me in until the end of September so I called around and found a new Dr. He told me to stop taking all meds 10 days before my apt and the itching is...

Bekissed, I have California Whites and they are great at foraging and laying. I've got one right now with half CW and BO chicks running behind her and she is doing great with them. They are fairly small birds (large white eggs) and was trying to set 22 eggs. She couldn't cover them all so I...

Beef. With blueberries and left over tomatoes on the dehydrator. Have onions, garlic, celery, carrots and corn waiting.

Ketchup, strawberry preserves and blueberry jam. I have some grapes for jelly some beef to grind and can and some stew meat to do.

I was looking at what is on her list. Turkey, cows and rabbits aren't there and that is what we eat the most of.

I've thought about it and it depends on the situation. If it looks to be short term and I can afford to restock then yes. If long term and I can't afford to restock then no. Before storms are predicted or anything that makes people run to the store to buy stuff, if I can I go and buy for the...

I don't have any idea of how to fight squirrels except shoot them. :hu

No trace of any of the fruits? Are you sure you don't have a 2 legged problem? I can't imagine coons eating that much and not making a mess. Never knew one to clean up after itself.

You can eat dandelions. Turn them from a weed to a salad or tea.

I don't know many veggie recipes. We mostly eat meat with potatoes, rice, corn or beans....

When there is an emergency I DO go shopping. Partly because I want my neighbors to think I'm "like them" but during an emergency the local women and childrens shelter is going to need supplies. So does the homeless shelter. Kills 2 birds with one stone. Makes it look like I'm as unprepared...

Thank you. I'll have to give that a try.

:sick I can't stand carob. My ex step mother used to buy that stuff. :tongue I can't use store bought flour. My daughters system doesn't tolerate the additives. She has a sensitivity to chemicals/preservatives. Everything she eats is home made with 90% home grown.

Butterscotch. I keep a bag in my truck. And horse trailer. And saddle bags. And car. And bus....

I used soft white wheat and this recipe works great with store bought white flour. My cookies, well the raw dough not so much cooked, feel a bit gritty too. I understand perfectly about husbands. Mine won't eat veggies if he can see them. He will pick them out but doesn't mind if I puree...

My usual recipe doesn't work well with freshly ground wheat. They stay flat, no rise at all. Anyone have a good biscuit recipe?

We usually eat our rabbits as we butcher but the Ball book I have has directions for canning rabbits. Its just like chicken for the most part.

You can vacuum seal chocolate chips and M&M's and they will last quite awhile. Don't know for how long, we don't give them a chance to go bad. The longest we had some was 8 months, only because I was really tired when I hid them from the kids and forgot where I put them.
