Pasta is pretty easy to make😁 messy and time consuming after "easy to mix" :lol: Any online purchase options????

@CrealCritter -- that  does look like a "toss it" item 😁. Even tho it's what you're actually "making"..... and people worry about mold on bread 🤣 go figure.

Waiting for grasses to dry off some so I can get out there without boots. Gonna try out this new toy today, a battery chainsaw. 👍 Yep, I bit the bullet.
Have you ever heard the song "Strange Brew"? 😂

Jesus is Lord and Christ 🙏❤️🇺🇸

I make my own pasta, the last batch was an 8 cup flour and 12 eggs, grandkid were coming, I mixed smoked salmon in and cheese sauce,, It did take a while but I love doing it for the family.

All the the chickens , not the 3 mammas, got baths,
Due to way to many egg laying fights, my husband turned my nesting bench into nesting boxes; I’ll get a pic next time I go out to the coop,
I put a turkey in the oven at noon, nice change, salad and turkey for dinner,

Mom has a few shows she watches every year (mostly in the winter when it gets harder for us to get out reliably and for traditional reasons too :) ).

Japanese beetles - a organic high-capacity mass trapping system 😁 complete with PDF plans


Talking about taking out the trash 👍

if the infestation in your area is bad enough you could probably get a net positive return because of the nutrients you are collecting in the bins that can go into the compost (or be buried right in the gardens). also perhaps once dead and dried they could be used a chicken feed? i have no ideas if chickens would eat them or not, but i think they would as it seems they'll eat about anything...

from reading along it looks that the lures are reasonably priced. i'd never gotten into this bad enough that i looked up the price. i pick them off by hand here and usually the damage is not too bad, but some seasons are worse than others.
