today was garden club meeting and there were the three of us regulars and it was great to get caught up a bit. i took some beans to shell out while sitting there and got most of them done. and yes, we did talk about gardening and some other things too, but on the whole it was mostly about...

*woof!*

you can return it if you haven't opened it yet and get the other kind instead. this year i used some low sugar pectin powder for making strawberry freezer jam and it turned out well and tasted pretty close to the previous recipe which used a lot more sugar...

looks better, body panels probably line up better, probably costs 1/20th as much. yep, looks like a winner to me. :) best of all, you don't care where you park it, nobody will steal it and even if they run into it you probably won't notice or care. plus you can use Tractor Supply for all...

to make jelly you will need pectin and if you want low sugar recipes they have pectin for that so get that and then follow their directions (usually they have a website these days if they don't have directions in or on the pectin). also it usually doesn't hurt to scan the internet for recipes...

didn't work at all. i do feel a little better but still would like a nap, just not happening...

yeah, it was cool this morning and it's more reasonable now, but i still don't want to go outside yet.

uhg, i hate it when i don't sleep well and then feel like i'm dragging the whole next day. :) i have work to do outside and feel zero gumption for getting it done. can i get in a few hour nap and then see how i feel? perhaps the best idea because if i go out there feeling like this i'll...

i've been signed up to TEG for seven years already? that went by way too fast... :)

i'm glad they are doing well together. :)

you will for sure want to have it well anchored with those winds. :)

aww! sweet! such a beautiful kitty. the doggie is looking at you like you've betrayed him...

i still can't bring myself to look at that...

yes, i just got my seven year anniversary notice...

welcome to TEG from mid-Michigan. :) if you are just starting to put in gardens take some time to think about what you want to do and plan your big equipment paths and other aspects which might be hard to work around later. for us it would have been nice to leave access for hauling things in...

with all the activity out back i wondered if i'd hear from the neighbors and then the other day they mowed the field again to the south. heard from them today about what is coming up this week and plans sound ok to me. *whew!* hopefully i've headed off a further disaster, but i'm not sure the...

i've had a kitten climb me like a tree (full claws out)... someone scared it and i was right there. jeans did take most of the claws but when it got to my thin cotton t-shirt it was No Fun At All[tm]...

i went out with the best of intentions to dig a decent sized trench down the middle of the tomato patch so i could bury all the garden debris plus anything else i could come up with to throw in there that would keep the worms happy. without much rain the past two months the ground was not at...

i didn't plan on picking beans today, but after digging a large enough trench to bury the tomato plants and any other stuff i want to throw in there (i only got half way, the ground is so hard i was digging up hard chunks of clay - and this is one of my better gardens!) i decided to check the...

finally getting some rain! it has been a while since we've had much rains here. there have been fire warnings in the past week. it is not very common around here to have fire warnings.
