    Green Burial

    Here in Az you do not have to be embalmed or even have a casket to be buried in. The trick is they bury you deeper I think @ 8ft instead of 6. I found all this out when dmil was planning her funeral & it was in the pamphlets. She was creamated in 07 as was dsfil in 97 & per her request we...

    Anyone here fans of Countryside Magazine?

    I have been getting it off & on for 10 yrs or more. I just paid last week for a 2yr subscription, so happy reading to me. I read them from cover to cover & it takes a little while for me to read it. With MEN I could have it read in 2 days tops, because not everything applies to us & our...

    Pam, did you know you can make your own hamburger helper mix? My family loves it, & it is sooooo much cheaper than buying it in the store & less garbage in it too.

    An amazing quote.

    Not when he already more than doubled our deficit in just 30 days in office. That is way too much spending. Especialy when he kept railing against Bush for the current deficit during the campaign. It's more than just policy I disagree with him on. But we are not evening getting into that...

    Trees are going in.

    The guy at the nursery told me the citrus might produce a few fruits this yr, because they were a little bit older than the other ones. The apple I am not expecting anything from but maybe a few blossoms. If I can get my concords in in time I am optomistic about getting grapes this yr. Will...

    Scared after the Senate passed of the new "Stimulous" package "rant"

    My opinion is simply this, there should be no ear marks period!!! I don't care who put them in they are all ridiculous & should not be there in any way shape or form. A bill should only have info in it that is pertaining to the subject it concerns. Your welcome BD. I am not enjoying the...

    Do your SS plans include secret rooms?

    Our guns are protected by the second amendment & will not b targeted. It is the ammo they are going after to regulate. There are 38 states that have legislation in them to limit the amount of ammo a person can purchase in a designated time frame. Not to mention what type of ammo too. And if...

    Trees are going in.

    My orange trees are blossoming right now & smell wonderful!! The info in the catalog doesn't say which type of peach they are. It does say it is a small pit to fruit ratio so a smaller pit & more ruit is a good thing. When I go online to order i will see if I can get more info. The trees...
