Hours were taken for orders to 3 seed companies Friday and Saturday. It wouldn't have been quite so time consuming but we were helping a friend. She has a big garden and her sister and grandchildren show up during the Summers to help and benefit from it. Unfortunately, I wasn't around when she...

You must recognize these :). Jewelry is being made in this shape nowadays. Steve

Thought of @Dirtmechanic ;)

How about a 2nd Start ..? Pumpkin Pie with whipped cream for a 2nd Breakfast! I've had 4 slices over yesterday and now this morning :). Will need to check on the remaining Winter Sweet squash in the basement, cellar room. They looked fine the last time I was down there 😋.

Good Morning. My start was the frequent cold cereal combo but there are lots of bananas and I will have to be using them up soon. Actually the start was taking that pill I am supposed to have an hour before eating ... Well, wait a minute. It might have been the dream I woke up from where it...

Out of Winter Storage?

Had to think of @baymule out in a pen with the sheep. The advantage she would have living further north ... ;) :D

The Weather Service is reporting 5 inches of snow fell tonight. Travel is disrupted with interstate highways closed for several hours. Idaho into Montana is being hit hard right now. I was out shoveling the walk from the front door and the sidewalk from 10:30 to 11:30, trying to get a jump on...

Umm, yes I can. I remember when they were a penny less than 4 cents. Of course, you are noting a 25% increase, from one day to the next. These days, the rates increase just about yearly but at lower percentages. Steve 📫

Several years ago, I had to look up the meaning of an Oxford comma. Oh! Not needed? Okay, I can see that for a list of single words: simpler with one, two, three and four. Not confusing. Phrases are something else: blah-blah-blah, yada-yada-yada, yackety-yack-yack, and so on. BTW, it wasn't...
