the last of the carrot cake (cream cheese frosting with just enough sugar that you could still taste the cream cheese, not too sweet at all) and for something different i put some peanuts on it plus a glass of milk. i thought of putting some chocolate sauce on it but didn't - i think that was a...

we have a bit of rain going to the south of us, not sure we'll get any from this or not - so far not.

there sure are a lot worse songs for that!

if their fertilizer smelled like roses i could see them as ok, but still not for me. hope you enjoy them! :) p.s. yes i am a delicate little flower...

we have water ready at all times and the propane fireplace provides heat and a way to cook things, those things are the most important in the middle of winter.

isn't that what the nose-ring is for to discourage rooting? (note that's about the extent of my piggie knowledge :) )...

i love western and northern MI. we were just up that ways last weekend to visit a friend. :) the trees are already starting to turn.

funny coincidence, last night i dreamed i was eating a dried fig, i've never eaten a dried fig in my life... i have no idea what they are like, my brain decided it wanted to make that all up. note the only influence i was under last night was some chocolate...

thanks! :) i have been trying to figure out what is different between the sweet italian sausage that many places make and the kind i could get up north that nobody makes around here. so distinctive i'd consider it a third or nth kind (not one of two but one of many). it could be the spices...

please, if you get a moment and can share your recipe i'd like to see it (unless it is one that is already pretty widespread - i can read a link to it too :) )... :) ?

i'd never seen that before...

i would argue that cows probably accidentally eat plenty of insects while browsing so they are not really what i would consider vegan or vegetarian.

picking more dry beans and weeding, and some peppers and tomatoes here or there. pretty much the normal later season routine. this next week looks like more rains so we'll see how that goes.

it sure has been an interesting time with the markets. my recent update is mostly in line with sticking to my system. currently my trading account is running 70-75% cash and a big chunk of that is invested in a money market account that pays a reasonable rate. my long account (almost 100%...

i sure don't understand that but i've also been single most of my life and have done most of my own finances since i was about 12 years old.

we're also at D2 and the trees are showing some signs of stress. we've had a few strategic rains or it could be a lot worse.
