Woohooo Wifzilla! chickiemama, do you have any Amish your way? They are typically pretty cool about selling their excess :)

Great deal on that fabric! Thrift stores have gotten smarter and tend to know what they "have" these days. So, doubly great! Love all the pics and instruction too. My chairs are currently just wood, but I have men and just don't want to spend all my time fussing at them over my fabrics :lol:

Top Ramen French Onion Soup ! I never keep the stuff around anymore, but back in the day... Beef Top Ramen. Chop and caramelize an onion. Put onion, half the beef flavor packet in when cooking the ramen. Cook as usual and put in bowls. Sprinkle with shredded mozzarella and salad croutons :D...

Hang in there. It will get better, I swear!:hugs Like my Grandmother said " you gotta take your lumps before you can get your lumps ( of sugar)" I am sure one of these days all the feelings you have now are going to help someone else who is feeling just as lost.

This past weekend I canned 9 birds and got 7 quarts. I do bone out and make the stock to can them in. I love my canned chicken. Its an instant meal when I have forgotten to take something out of the freezer. I prefer to do it in pints, I just happen to be out of pint jars when it was time to can...

Very best of luck! :fl :fl :fl :fl

All right, I guess I don't have to eat horrible processed foods in this case ! However, don't make us wait any longer than we have to. There is nothing more precious than baby critters!

So, we are getting about 5 dozen eggs a day now. So much so I have started pickling eggs every other day. We have a gal that is buying all we have once a week for 2.00 a dozen, but there is no room in my fridge for waiting that long. Last week I was talking to a guy that was here to buy eggs and...

Oh how I feel for you ! I watched my parents go through the very same thing for my grandmother. After countless appointments with lawyers, doctors and 'convalescent care professionals " my parents both approached me separately and requested they be euthanized before putting me through that. So...

Wait.. like a repellant? You wouldn't happen to know a bit more would you ? Like a brand or maybe a web site ?

I am green with envy! I understand dexters have a great temperament as well. I am just so happy for you! However, if there are not pics soon.. I will.. um.. do something horrible, like.. eat at Mc Donald's! You wouldn't want that would you ???

I just couldn't do it. :( I couldn't bring myself to wait till midnight like I had originally planned :lol: About noon-ish I dumped the last of my tobacco and sent all of my favorite ashtrays, rollers, papers, ect ect to auction. I bought a new purse that is not centered around 'having space for...

We are already seeing the corn issues at the local co op. Our chicken and turkey feed prices have gone up. Not a lot, just about .50 , but still. Our poor UPS guy is going to be furious with us. I ordered 100lbs of gmo free wheat and oats a few days ago ;) ETA: I got them for planting. A...

We get a particularly vicious infestation of them around here. Las autumn and winter there was no leaving a drink without some sort of cover on it. We took to drinking everything out of travel coffee cups. It wasn't until late in the season I discovered a small glass bowl in each window with a...

How sweet is that?! I had never considered crocheting aprons. I wear them daily. This got me to looking, I found some really nice ones for adults that use a #10 cotton thread. Lots of work, but really pretty!

More apple pie filling, more apple honey, 4 more roosters and broth. It seems that tomorrow I get to work on green tomato salsa. The frost took out the plants :( I have never had green tomato salsa before, but I really hope I like it since there is about 100lbs of green tomatoes :lol:

Around here, GMO corn can be spotted by roots that are above ground. They look like alien fingers digging into the earth.
