    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    NSFW: so don't read if you're squeamish. Hubs and son moved a tree for me a week ago. It wasn't happy in full sun, so he moved it to a shadier spot. When he went to pound in the stake with a t-post thingie, out came flying blood and stuff. Evidently a mouse was up in the top. :th

    What's for dinner?

    I found some Orange Roughy on clearance at Safeway. Haven't seen it in many years. So I looked it up. Its been overfished and contains too much mercury for kids/preg women. These two 70 yr olds don't care about that for one meal. Going to make soft fish tacos tonite.

    Food prices June 2021

    Mother's daddy raised turkeys in his Philadelphia back yard during the early 30's. He'd lost his job at Atlantic Richfield (ARCO) as an engineer for three years. Mother hated those turkeys. They were the dumbest things ever, and if I ask Mother (94.5 yrs now) about them, she will launch into how...

    @Alaskan Saw this article in my FB feed. During overflights on March 7 and 11, AVO measured significantly elevated volcanic gas emissions from Mount Spurr volcano, Alaska.

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Hubs and I went to Lowes. He got lumber and I got dirt. Its so expensive and contains so much bark. Oh well. Even tho I planted my gladiolas deep (like three inches) nearly three years ago, many of them have migrated upwards and their crowns are showing. I'm not digging them down again, so I put...

    What's for dinner?

    Used up a 5 lb bag of older russets - sliced them 1/2" thick. Made my own cream/cheese sauce. Toss with cubes of ham. Bake in oven at 400 for 45 minutes. Top casserole with 2 year old parmesan that was in the freezer. YUMMY!!!

    What did you do in your orchard today?

    I finally sprayed all my trees. Sorta. I found two bottles with spray handles in my stash. They all had estate sale prices on them. So I squirted away. Not thorough, but I did empty two larger bottles of stuff, so that I have more room to see and know what I already have. It'll do.
