    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Suggesting 88 today, was that yesterday. We had cooled, then this week of hot, now heading back to a lovely 70-75 after today. Our little reminder of summer heat before jacket weather comes & stays. A system passing might give us rain tonight, nothing big. It's fine, could use a few drops...

    the little wild kingdom

    That reminds me of grandmas! Waaay back then, bologna was a staple, found at many meals. Back then it wasn't Oscar Mayer slices. Nope, you had them cut a few pounds of off a humongous solid roll of it. Then wrapped in butcher paper. Anyway, at a big chicken swap affair recently, one of the...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    The rains may be ok, probably better without the wind! It's beautiful here today, E coast. Mid 80s but low humidity and a nice breeze. Makes it pretty nice out there 😊

    👍👍☺️. I like Ray! That's a nice looking little piggy. Shame on you & the root pic. I just see a garden dug by other than me. Plus, they eat roots! 👍😎🤔 🫵 Trouble maker!

    So NOW, I'm a little concerned at the thought of getting piglets, again. Ya see, I have a garden area that could use a winter "plow & eat the roots" session....a desire for more good tasting pork, and confidence I'm not the only nut case alive :old :lol: :lol:

    It's real foggy this morning....so wet feel to everything. Not preferred but -- about 100-150' of visibility. No need to drive this early but a 10:30 aptmt. Should lift by then.

    Oh, my!!:ep:lol::lol: wow -- my fault??? :hide I've got a lot of kune-kune around. They don't root "as" badly with shorter noses.....I'm told. :idunno but four?? Really, four ?!?!? Plus, they visually seem to have more belly than my AGHs. I'll be interested to hear reports, from grow out...

    Hi

    Hello & welcome from VA. What general area in FL? I used to have rentals & personal houses in Melbourne & Homestead -- before Homestead was leveled by hurricane & rebuilt. Sold out after that rebuild 🥴

    AGHs. Nice size & delish meat. No taint. Friendly. What's not to like? Jan I'll have lots of milk flow to share, they'll be tasty again come March.

    @mkirkpatrick6411 Yes. Beef is expensive now. A friend who raises beef said they'd not be eating it if not raised, due to price 🤣. I'm definitely sending a goat to butcher this winter, home grown. Still looking for a pig...found 2 but need to schedule a drive time for pick up. Prob couple...

    For me, the expense of $6 is better than buy a bush & nurture it. Primarily since the container provides more than my needs for a couple of years. I've made myself look harder at need/effort/cost in a better light. Like not devoting space to grow something I eat sparingly. 🤷 Garden math...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    That's a strange claim...I do wonder 🤔 Spent yesterday at a 2x yrly meet up with fellow BYH forum members. The "swap" where we go has gotten huge -- almost tooooo huge. It's an all day off farm thing with each of us driving there 100 or so miles for marathon walking, shopping & lunch with...

    Just reminding all -- shop well. I wanted a supply of fresh bay leaves. The McC bottle was $4.69, .12 oz, many broken leaves. Went to the ethnic section of this groc store (I use this variety often) and bought .20 oz for $1.19, nice whole leaves in a small cellophane (?) bag. A small item...
