looks delicious to me! :)

i brought a small box of the tomatoes in from the garage. we'll eat those over the next week. still some getting red enough and still tasting like what tomatoes should taste like. we had BLTs the other day and will probably have them again today.

just finished a science fiction book the other day for a quick read. for the imagination i like either science fiction or fantasy (but i do not usually like the combination :) ). i just spent my break time reading some science papers on nutrients for cattle feed supplied by various crops if...

i have always been using the regular versions which i prefer for their texture (more firm), so that means i dial in the recipe to where it cooks in the microwave and i don't always have to stir more than the once. then changing the setting to lower power where it goes for a while (but...

we have two or three days coming up that will be in the 70sF and maybe even hit the 80sF. some rain chances (Mon night and Tue) - a mixed bag (nothing too surprising with that for this time of the year). 80F would be interesting though this late. hard frosts the past few nights.

the question on my mind in recent weeks was how much (percentage wise) nitrogen is supplied by the dry weight of bean stems and some leaves and then if you are returning a percentage of the bean harvest to the soil each time you grow them how much of that is also a supply of which nutrients? it...

finished getting last bean garden ready for w*nt#r. came in from that and fell asleep right away. so yet again awake at night for when i should be sleeping - time to get back to sawing logs...

clams is a reference to shells which were in older times a form of money for some peoples...

we had tomatoes, bacon and Miracle Whip for dinner, Mom had toast with lots of butter and i had a large green tortilla warmed up which i just ate out of hand along with my bowl of the rest. then i sprawled out on my comfy perch and fell asleep for the rest of the evening. it was a busy day...

to me it's just very tiny bits of pasta with flavorings of different kinds. i can eat tons of that! editors note this now becomes a long love poem of bits of prose about these simple things. you can skip it if you don't want to read about a fixated knucklehead... butter and brown sugar are...

*cheering noises* :) aren't they so purty! :) :) :) i noticed one bean (sorry i do that :) ) with a darker ring around the eye which may indicate a bit too much exposure of that bean to fungi. i discard any beans that look like that if i see them (and i do look at all of the many...

i like quiet times. i also like not finding bits of plastic string from trimmers all over the place. i told my brother that if he could find an electric trimmer that has a metal blade that i could use that we might use something like that. i went and tried to find one myself but ran out of...

we did get some rain here Friday, but i'm not sure what the weekend will be like. that is all i can say from my comfy perch where i refuse to go poke at the weather forecast website. :)

as i was listening to him talk and watching the video his voice sounded very familiar. yes, it was the same guy i was watching a lot of his mouse trap videos as i was learning about mouse trapping and mouse behaviors... the dark speckled bean he shows looks like a lighter version of one that...

did you check for the original ones? those don't seem to have sugar added... or perhaps i'm looking at old information on-line? i don't ever recall CoW or MoM having sugar added until after they are done (i love 'em with butter and brown sugar).

i always liked the natural world and all the plants and critters i could study. houseplants were where i started studying plant propagation techniques and used a Reader's Digest book which i still have and would try things with as many different houseplants as i could get ahold of. all the...

got my mouth watering with that one. love fried green tomato sandwiches and also salsa with hot peppers in it and then also egg plant and i don't mind the bitter either...

getting there. one part of the garden outside the fence is all ready for winter so that leaves me with the part closer to the house, then planting garlic and turning under and/or weeding the strawberry patch and then the north garden needs more done and some other projects too, but the list is...

welcome to the bean thread and TEG. i'm curious what color those Hopi Purple String beans had for their flowers and are the pods purple or green? :)

there are a few spots of Irish Moss in the thyme, i've tried to keep it apart but it likes to mingle and does better with the companion on that clay. it came in with the thyme in the pots from the greenhouse and i weeded it out at first not knowing what it was, and then i moved some of it and...
