    What's for dinner?

    Tonight will be enchiladas. Beef and cheese and also a few plain cheese and onion (special request from DH). A big ol' pot of charro beans to go with and a Mexican themed chopped salad. There will be queso and chips for those so inclined. Debating on mexican/spanish rice...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    What is wrong with me? (don't answer that) I keep waking up before the sun. I guess that's ok because I'm sleeping really well at night and getting things done during my non-sleeping hours. Coffee is good this morning. Heck, coffee is good every morning!

    Gardening On Your Homestead: What’s Growing in Your Soil?

    I've had raised beds and inground gardens. I like the raised beds a lot for root crops. There's a lot of clay where I live and the root crops do so much better in the softer dirt of a raised bed. My raised bed space is limited so I plant in-ground for big sprawly crops or just for ones I need...

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Ewwwww! Nothing like a storm to screw up weekend plans. Hope it's not too bad. I still need to get more winter hay. Supplier has said he'll be cutting this month and I'll probably get 12-15 more. A couple of the gals are getting some nice round bellies. Kinda getting anxious to see...

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Can't go wrong with greens for sure! Nothing better than a pot of greens w/some ham or sausage simmering on the stove. Skillet of cornbread to go with... mmmmmmm! I still haven't even started seeds for anything. Greens will be direct sowed so at least that's a little easier. The brooder is...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    It'll definitely be a multi-cup morning. Woke up a little after 4am and fought valiantly to go back to sleep. Nope - didn't happen. Oh well, lots to do today so nothing wrong with an early start. Hope everyone has a good one!

    Yikes! Better you than me, lol. I want cooler weather but something in the 60 - 70 range will do just fine! First cup is hitting the spot. Countdown is on for DGS and his gal friend to get here on Monday! I'm excited!

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Another busy day ahead. Lots to do- work is never ending around here. I wouldn't know what to do if I ever got caught up, lol. Does that ever happen? Grandson and his girlfriend will be here Monday. EEEEK! I'm so excited! I wouldn't be in cleaning mode if it was just DGS - he's seen it...

    Up and at 'em this morning. Early bedtime last night - I needed it! Lots of stuff still on the to-do list. I'm tired of this list. I want a got-done list!

    What did you do in your garden today?

    Hope so too! I bet they'll be ok. We don't have any of those around here. I never knew they were so small! What do you do with them? Jelly?
