:welcome I would love to see pics of your wind-turbine if you get a chance :)

I'm so proud of myself and my belly is so full! :ya I made homemade pasta tonight for dinner. I had bought a pasta roller/cutter off of overstock.com awhile ago and hadn't used it. I brought it out today cuz I was stressing about money and cooking helps me relax. It was so yummy and so was...

Wow what great ideas! Thanks :thumbsup

I just finished 4-pints of tomato sauce, all headed for the freezer. I purchased the tomatoes today @ the Farmer's Market. Most of my tomato plants have succumbed to blight :somad But it sure is yummy! I kept "sampling" just to make sure it tasted right ;)

I don't know about the Toyota trucks, but I adore our Toyota Camrys...yes 2! We have a 2009 & 1999, the 99' I love! It has never left me stranded and starts every morning even in the cold Indiana weather. I also work with to women whom both own Camrys as well. One is a 98' the other a...

That is hysterical! You are one special person to be able to work with the elderly. I don't have the patience :bow

I just canned tomato-jalapeno relish....mmmmm... Next on the list...tomato sauce to go with the homemade manacotti I just froze yesterday! 75lbs of tomatoes for $15 bucks? :drool I'm so jealous!

We have lived in our house over 10yrs and starting this year (thanks to my chickens) we have been bartering a lot with our nice neighbors :clap When they found out we were getting chickens (for eggs) they gave us several pounds of ground beef, steaks, etc. from a supply they received in lieu...

Yay :clap Nothing like a nice, free item...esp a freezer :weee

Oh man that stinks! :( I know I'm doing something wrong, they're all trying to escape...oh well! Hope your bunny/worm system works better for you :)

Why do we do that to ourselves?? :hu I know I was looking at a cheesemaking book last night...thinking "Oh what a great idea!" Really?!?! Why on earth would I think it would be a great idea to take on cheese-making? Hope things start going a little our way for all of us...but I have...

Yeah, brand new chickie babies :clap Very exciting...I'm hoping today will be a better day as well!

I believe you are correct as well. I drove 40 minutes the other day to the feed store that carried some Amprol. So far :fl only one is pooing blood and everyone is being treated. I'm hoping things will start going on the up-swing :)

Thanks for all the words of encouragment and sharing your stories, I hope things get better for you all as well. You're right...I'm back ;) I went out to my garden to find half of my tomato plants down again. I was :somad that I decided to rip the almost dead one out of the ground...yeah, I...

Yummy :drool thanks for the link. Mmmmm, salty and sweet combo my fave :thumbsup

Okay not really, I had to vent/rant though...Why do I always have some great idea, but yet it never works out as intended? This is my 7th maybe 8th year of gardening. I worked soooo hard in doing what the books told me this year, felt as though I did everything right and then BAM, my...

Ohhhh...good idea! I never thought about that ;)

I recently went to a canning class :thumbsup They provided us with this printout: www.ces.purdue.edu/extmedia/food_preservation_color_pubs.pdf It provides great links to pdf files you can print out and make your own canning binder!

Ah, Pat the woman w/all of the answers :weee That is EXACTLY what I did...I'm super-clumsy, always dropping stuff and my clothes hampers are always tipping over. I didn't even think about that! I'm so goofy thinking chiggers could fly or something :lau Lucky you Lovechooks, no chiggers and...

Hmmm...well the mystery continues. I know it was from the black pair of shorts I put on, cuz as soon as I changed, no more bites. Maybe there was some other type of bug? All I do know is that those shorts are currently in the hot wash! Thanks for all the advice and sorry for the confusion, I...
