    Baymule’s Farm

    Oh my word! I cannot imagine trying to cope with this craziness. Are these lambs Granny's first? At any rate I'm glad she seems to finally be accepting the babies as her own. What an ordeal!

    Winter reading?

    I think I saw the same documentary. The part I found most interesting was parental care given by a mother tree to its offspring/seedlings, transferring nutrients to the little trees through their root systems. It explains why seedlings that spring up naturally seem to thrive better than...

    Museum of Glass

    These are phenomenal. Were these pieces all made by the same artist or by different artists? The Peabody Museum of Natural History in Cambridge, MA (part of Harvard University) has (haven't been there in over 40 years but I assume the exhibit still exists) an exhibit of glass flowers. They...

    Concerned About Growing Old?

    Apart from maybe David Attenborough no one my age (or older) is climbing mountains or zip lining. So among my peers, that makes getting dressed w/o losing my balance more of a noteworthy accomplishment.

    Sentry, Baymule’s Livestock Guard Dog

    This is terrible news. It's so sad that he had so many bouts of illness in his young life; it just seems so unfair for such a nice dog. It does sound like there was some sort of autoimmune issue in play. RIP good dog Sentry.

    I garden in MA, great to be here !!

    To add to the irony, way back in 1973 when we were preparing to move to Vermont, the couple who had signed a lease to take over our Comm Ave apartment (we met them briefly) were moving there from Vermont.

    This photo makes your garden look like a heaven on earth. It looks beautiful even without the spectacular sunset.

    That's a great looking rubber tree plant! We moved in opposite directions it seems, you from Vermont to Boston, and we to Vermont from Boston, imagine that!

    What are You Eating from the Garden?

    The past two days were spent turning many bags of frozen tomatoes into spaghetti sauce. First was the ordeal of coring and peeling the endless supply of tomatoes with frozen fingers. (I should have cored them before freezing.) Then boiling/simmering/stirring the pot over the course of 2 days...

    Lost Garden Implements

    You're having better luck finding things these days than losing them.

    Lost Garden Implements

    I went through a phase where I wrapped the handles of some tools in reflective tape and spray painted others with florescent paint, but the tape tended to peel off, sometimes leaving a sticky residue, and the paint reacted badly with some of the non-slip handles of others. I wish they made more...

    Candy from the Old Days!

    Oops! Sorry about that, bro! I seem to have problems with gender identification on this forum. Thought BayMule was a guy for quite awhile til she posted a photo. I think perhaps because she takes on such monumental construction projects single-handedly.

    Candy from the Old Days!

    Amen sister! Candy corn rocks! Remember popcorn balls? There were two kinds, one made from caramel like your mom makes, and the other a pink sugar concoction. I liked both, and very often these homemade goodies would be handed out to kids on Halloween, wrapped in waxed paper. I recall my...

    Candy from the Old Days!

    I LOVE marzipan, but chocolate covered marzipan, not so much. I don't like chocolate much in the first place, but what I really detest is chocolate in places where it doesn't belong, such as in chocolate milk, or cherry ice cream or mint ice cream contaminated with chocolate chips. I guess...
