    Memes That Make You Giggle

    I have the glass pyrex ones that you could watch the whole process... the bubbles under the base and when it was hot enough that the water would go all the way up the glass tube to hit the top of the "basket" that the coffee grounds are in. Sadly, someone will throw them out when I die.....

    Spring Buds

    Until you have cattle and feeding in conditions that are difficult, it is not a good idea to make too many suggestions on setting things up differently. There are ways to do some rotational bale grazing with electric... but we have so much deer problems here, it just does not work. Every...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    I gotta be the "contrary one".....:hide:hide I would much rather see colder temps, frozen ground, and snow, than rain... I hate the cold rain in the winter... The snow can be pushed out of the way and if the ground is cold and hard, it is alot easier to get around to feed and the animals do...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Had a skiff of snow before daylight, then sprinkles... Temps hit 50 this afternoon and the precious 5 inches snow and 1/2 inch ice are melting... Had really hoped for more rain to get it all melted down. Now there is a forecast of 1-3 inches snow possible for tomorrow... yet they are still...

    All About Vacuum Sealing
