    I have, I have - weekly. I dont believe the affairs of this nation can be separated from our daily lives. The two are intertwined for good or bad.... indeed we ARE the nation. Mr. Obama and I old correspondents these days. I get something from the White House once a week, at least, and I respond...

    "FIRST BUILD YOUR GREENHOUSE"!!!!! Out of plastic bottles!

    I wondered that too.... But side walls made from the bottles, with a different roof, could make for a good "hybrid."

    See, Ive said that, too. Who better than we to provide feedback. Just think of the legions of testers available. As for how our money is used by the government, the thing that is funny to me is that most people simply accept it - without protest.

    I'm an inveterate seed saver, too. The potential they represent is something I cannot ignore. I stand guilty of that obsession. The store with the 3-cent seeds is the local Family Dollar. They have placed their seasonal seed rack on clearance. You won't find any exotics or specialty seeds, just...

    Interesting. I have tried again, this time for some Romano beans and Fond Blanc melons. I only requested a couple of items and these are from a different repository... so we'll see if that makes a difference.

    You are right of course, seeds are a cheap indulgence. I'm getting seeds for $.03 per pack right now, from one store. My thing is, here is another government program which we pay for - yet we are scrutinized by the Seed Police for wanting to participate? It's my fault, really. After all, I...

    Blackeyed Peas

    Since black eyed peas and navy beans are classed together as shell beans, it seems likely. If the one can be eaten young as a podded vegetable, I imagine the other can as well. I'll try a test patch an find out. Luckily the seeds can be bought for $1.75/1000+, so it is an easy-on-the-wallet...
