My husband LOVES candy corn!

My sugar maple went in stages this year. Part of it stayed green, and I knew by the time that part turned, the first part would have fallen off. October 21: November 3rd:

And this picture is where? :idunno 🤭

The red miniature rose is still blooming. This is my other “miniature” rose. It was a gift in one of those little pots they have in grocery stores. But after a couple of years outside, it has gotten huge! It is really trying to keep blooming! (This is on the south side after all.)

I think the name of these mums is Cheerleader. I pruned them back in the early part of the summer to help them get bushier, but I believe they are supposed to have long stems regardless. Maybe I should have staked them. They were a little nicer before they got pounded with rain earlier this...

Well look at that! Here is a cool website where I uploaded a screenshot photo of your plant, and it came up with several close looking plants. The first one seems to be spot on. I’ve never heard of Tournefort’s cabbage. https://identify.plantnet.org/k-world-flora/identify There were some...

Wondering what kind of climate that weed (?) grows in, I clicked on your username, but you do not have anything listed for location. If you could edit that, it will help out with these kinds of questions. Anyway, I don’t recognize it, so I’m going to see what I can look up.

I haven’t given it any thought yet, but our youngest son will be coming home, so it will be worth making something. I just saw a Popeye’s ad about their Cajun rubbed turkey. Interesting.

No, just admire it. 😁

Have you ever heard of “Dads and the dogs they didn’t want”? My son-in-law is the best sport ever! Today is his birthday and the dog’s birthday was a week ago. These are their “birthday hoodies”. My daughter clarified that this was his own idea! :love

Oh my gosh don’t EVER plant Cut Leaf Rudbeckia!! I love rudbeckia, but this is entirely different. Lowe’s had it once and I thought “Oh, a new rudbeckia to try!”. I bought 3. They were pretty cool at first. Grew over 6 feet tall. Pretty yellow flowers, although kind of small sparse considering...

Thank you! She just turned 15 one week ago today! It’s been 3 or 4 years now that she’s been showing her age more and more and I’ve been saying I don’t think she will make it to her next birthday. But she keeps plugging along!

Have you tried goodwill? It might take some patience to find just the right one, but used crockpots, their crocks and their lids are common items at goodwill. I remember needing a replacement plastic lid for the crockpot we got as a wedding present in 1990. (This was almost 20 years later.) I...

🤭 I just realized that I’m posting in the canning thread of TEG and not SS! Both forums have dark green edges. I am used to posting my bazillions of jar photos on the SS canning thread and this page had a familiar look to it! Well, I guess I will try to be a regular on here too. 😁

I don’t cook my bone broth nearly as long as you do, but for many years I have enjoyed the process of making broth from chicken and Turkey carcasses (and beef bones once I save up enough in the freezer for a batch). Until I got my electric canner this year, I never canned the broth. Just crammed...

Bone in chicken thighs I canned last week but forgot to post. I used one jar already, and I really like them. But the bones are pretty soft, so it’s trickier to make sure no pieces of bone get crumbled into your recipe. I might just stick to boneless in the future.

I thought we already had a thread like this. I searched and couldn’t find it. This morning as I was waiting for my dogs to go potty, I noticed a few blooms on plants that I thought had quit for the year. I took pictures for the thread and now I can’t find it, so why not just start one? Might be...

I took some photos of the campfire rose in various stages of bloom. They start out with more yellow and then fade to more pink.

His dream is to travel. :barnieI’m sure there will be compromises.:idunno
