    Not food but the shampoo I use was $8 a bottle regular price last year. It's $16 now. For over a year I've kept an old bottle and mix up a bit 50/50 with water every few days. Spreads easier so I use less. It's a trick used for shampooing dogs easier

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    I keep trying to remove the "stuck item" from between my teeth with my tongue. It's an implant crown I got yesterday. So not used to having something there.

    Can cats live with chickens?

    Depends on the cat. My female cat is perfectly safe with chicks. Sometimes I'll catch her sunning with the piles of silkies. Her brother not really. As a teenager he went after some ameraucana chicks. I was close and swatted him the first time. 2nd time I was only close enough to watch the beat...

    What did you do in your garden today?

    I'd left the tiny root remnants of the rat eaten horseradish in the pot. There was enough left that I have leaves up. I'll be repotting them

    Egg Hatching

    They really are. I've had a lot of involved roosters, too. Mass of silkies co-parenting and one will hide the chicks while the others attack

    Egg Hatching

    I hold them sideways with one hand under the faucet, just the butt by a tiny stream of warm water. My fingers are in the water to direct the water and I carefully work it off. Dry well with paper towel. They fluff back up quick, even under mama.

    What did you do in your garden today?

    $7 of sunchoke tubers into the ground. Was 17 of them. I'll see how they do. They are in the driest part of the garden for winter. They did look ready to start growing and a few had little roots. Got them in the produce area at Pal-do World. I've bought them before to eat.

    I have heavy duty insulated curtains. They block all light so hubby can sleep in summer. Bonus is they keep temps good.

    Memes That Make You Giggle

    I cleaned a friends apt for him that looked about 10x worse than that. Took 4 competent adults 8 hours and I don't know how many bags of trash anymore. It was for renewal inspection and he was on cruise. I did much screaming and I was the least squeamish person there. Grown men wouldn't touch...

    I have eaten WW2 C rations in the 1980s. When they'd come across some out at the Army Depot Dad was security at, they'd split them with whomever wanted some. Dad would bring them home so we could try them. So yeah, 40 year old canned goods didn't kill us

    Oh i know that only formula means anything. I ignore them unless it's getting to the decade mark, and then it depends on what it is. I ate home canned tuna from 2014 the other day. Perfectly good even if storage recommendations now say thats too old. Look, listen, smell on canned goods. Tuna...
