    Official SS Poll: What is your primary reason for gardening?

    Same price issues here with peppers -- esp the colored ones 🙄 While they are not as productive as the green, sure not that much off. Nope, not paying $1.25-1.50 per pepper!! Yes, taste is different and I have plenty frozen from garden. Geesh....guess they have to make that $$$ somewhere...

    Nothing great happening here. Sunshine & good coffee. Weather nice, so an outside day! Things need to get attention & I'm forcing myself to focus! Breakfast over -- get back out there.

    I'm actually considering buying a 29 cent a lb turkey just to can. Already 2 in freezer, plus a breast -- will cook those in next 6 months. I did can just a large breast this summer. Pints for me as I'm cooking for one...but, I've made sure some proteins (beyond beans) is in the pantry...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Still 36* at 9:30...less wind makes it more tolerable. Sure cold for chores tho. Inside for cooking, laundry, etc. To town for load of feed later, animals gotta eat. Down 17 goats in past 3 months -- that helps with feed bill. I'm on a roll. Plan to reduce about 10 more 🤞. Before I know...

    Are we living our dream?

    Agree with both above replies. You are being unfair to him to not point out some ways he needs to change what he eats...kindly, of course. Remind the issues with diabetes and devastating effects. What you cook and limited amounts of "bad" foods even allowed in house at a time will matter...
