Someone mentioned that it was their secret thing to enjoy on tv and so I sat and watched a marathon of it the other day and it is funny! one of the better ones to watch-better than anything the craptashions have out. And the Hutterites actually do talk like that. I'm amazed that their Elders...

I agree with me&thegals-if you have mud it will just compact around the roots and the plants won't thrive. I'd wait on the strawberries too-if you have them in the fridge they should still be okay. I have to go and pick up some strawberries too. but it is a couple months out for me to plant...

you did harden them off right? and burying them a bit deep(as long as the growing point is not buried) won't hurt them a bit.

two cookies steal the show every time they get put out during the bake sales for our schools. the no bake chocolate cookies(oatmeal) and the rice crispy treats. Next thing that goes tends to be the cupcakes. If you do a good sweet type roll then mini "braids" with an egg in the middle of...

About every 4 to 5 feet. I have a lot of jugs as most times they do emergency water for my chickens when we lose power. and if it is really going cold for the night I also have quite a few of the big "plastic feed" bags from the corn and feed for my chickens and will put a layer of those over...

I get frosting buckets and filling buckets from our local bakery for .99cents each and they have gasketed lids and they even run them thru the hobart so that they are clean clean! but they are not 5 gallon most times. about 3 1/2 and 4 gallon but with my back problems they are a bit easier for...

My daughter brought them home from high school once-the whole cheerleading squad came down with them! We went the poison route then but really regretted it as it caused me to have a reaction. For follow up my dr recommended mayonnaise. Lucky for us tho she was at summer camp and we didn't...

The ones I get are in a bright yellow gel cap. has a bit of a funky flavor tho. Do not chew haha..

I suffer from tension headaches and from migraines and the only thing so far for me, that works like a miracle is Butterburr or Petadolex(that is the latin name) for me it is a true miracle as in it will make a migraine stop and not get any worse and start to go away after it starts! while it...

YAY!! and it is a great one!!! I have a couple areas in my yard where there are a few plants that put out nothing but 4 leaved clovers(boy say that three times fast :lol: ) if you borrow books from me there are often a four leaf clover dried and pressed in them.. I read outside on nice days...

Look for a type called "little finger" that was the first carrot I really got a nice harvest out of.. they are tiny and yummy and very easy to grow. Now that my garden beds are a bit nicer and deeper (loamy wise) I have had good luck with Purple Dragon carrots too and one called(just a guess on...

you could grow butternut squash.. one of the blandest most over grown squashes ever.. ick blechy. :sick (can ya tell I love a good aged sweet winter squishy? )Should be just what you are looking for! ;) and on the matter of squashes and not wanting a "sweet" squash if you harvest early to get...

Cloches are okay.. if you only have a few to cover but if you put in whole rows it is easier to use reemay(row cover/frost cover or frost cloth there are a few different names for it I'm sure) with wickets to keep it up. If it gets really cold at night in the spring I've even put in gallon...

I've done it before and used tp instead of paper toweling as it disintegrates better. I also used a home made paste of thick cornstarch to glue them in place. I also cut the tp in one inch strips(wide) and I put the strips down on a tray and then put the dots of cornstarch glue on there and...

I prefer applewood for smoking any of the bacon or pork and just love sugar maple for turkey. any of the beef or even turkey again I like hickory too. I have had pecan before and pecan hulls and it is nice but not too local for me so I stick with the old apple tree out back and trim it down...

While I know it and can use it if needed I hate the metric system. don't wanna change.. gonna drag my feeties and complain and whine all the way into the future.. lol I hate to say this but many people complain about my recipe as there are no really hard measures as I am a pinch of this and a...

OH! I forgot! our big pressure tank for the well has a drain feature that our other one did not and so there is about (guessing here) maybe 100gallons in there. It is really big compared to our old one which was about 70 gallons - I'm thinking this summer about getting water tanks/barrels for...

Happy happy news!!! conga rats!!! just do me a favor-when they break out the round up hide inside with a gas mask on.. class one cell disruptors are nothing to fool around with. I wish they would outlaw them like they did DDT. They can brow beat and sue and threaten and even spread lies...

I have to say that so far we haven't really been in a bind where I needed hot water super fast so it hasn't been a big deal here. and when I do fuss at it taking a bit to heat up I think about how many servants one needed back in pre electric days(or kids or self haha) to heat up water for a...

I know the cast iron trick!!!! I used it all the time to thaw stuff! I have a cast iron griddle that came on my stove and I often just place stuff on there to thaw does it quicker and better than a microwave(at least I think so :) ) and on the matter of being Self Sufficient-I know for sure...
