Thanks for the site. That's the direction I wanted to head in originally for our yard. I really enjoyed the video. I'm going to do more research into forest gardening.

My mother made an inexpensive birdbath out of 4 terra cotta pots that were stacked and a terra cotta saucer on top. She painted the outside of the pots and saucer. Then, she had run a metal rod through the drainage hole, put rubber gaskets and washers on each end and finished it off with nuts...

It looks lovely. I'm working on the video right now. Apparently, either my computer isn't buffering correctly or the website is super busy. I'm guessing it's the second. I'll give my opinion on it when I've finished it but so far it'svery interesting.

You could try to grow pansy's inside. the flowers are edible. A lot of the traditional houseplants tend to not only be tropical plants but poisonous.

I hear you on the arthritis. I've been achy for the last several days. I try not to take my meds for it as they seems to make me need to take them more. I just about had to force myself to keep knitting last night. I'm so close to being done I can practically taste it.

I am so excited for you. I just got mine in the ground a couple of days ago.

I hope your daughter is doing better this morning.

Of my list, I got one thing done. LOL I got the grocery shopping done. While at Wally World, I picked up a bunch of seeds. I now have 2 varieties of sunflowers, alyssum, cosmos, marigold, 2 varieties of nasturtium, calendula, lemon cukes, butterfly weed, spinach and lettuce. So much for only...

Dreamweaver, I know what you mean. As it is, I have my 5 illegal chickens and 1 illegal rabbit (because it's housed outside). Luckily, my neighbors don't mind and have partaken in some of the "profits" of my experiments.

I thought about doing a homebirth with my daughter but, in the end, I was really glad I was in the hospital. Everything about her birth could not have gone more beautifully. My water broke on the toilet (same as with my son), 2 contractions later her head was out and one more and I was done...

Now, that's my kid of irony. LOL You'll have to post a pic of the "sushi" sometime.

It's the same here in Colorado. The line will actually dry the clothes faster than any dryer I've seen. If I could just figure out how to get the clothes not quite so stiff, I'd be set.

Isn't it fun to watch them grow and see daily changes? I LOVED that part of raising chicks.

I second the motion for The Backyard Homestead. In fact, it's in front of me right now. I never would have thought about raising rabbits if it weren't for that book.

I always overload the kids with yogurt when they are having intestinal issues. I look at it like this. Their body has hit the emergency evacuation button for a reason. Surely, the good bacteria will be evactuated with the bad so why not add more good to hopefully balance everything out. I...
