Living with my husband is interesting at times... You would think after almost 20 years of marriage, I would get used to his "knowing" things he can't possibly know, but somehow does. Last night about 7:15pm, Rich says "I feel like having Grouper." (a type of fish that I have never seen here...

Rather than type in and post what I just put on my blog. I will save wear and tear on my old fingers and just give you the link if anyone would like to see the Snow we had in the desert this week. http://glenncottage.shutterfly.com/1673

It was snowing here in Tucson!!

Hmmm, maybe I won't give up on my EE's if you can get that big of eggs from them too. My hens I bought so I could have some nice colored eggs, only lay brown ones!!

Yes, I have!! I bet they would be good with a Panko Crumb Crust!

Now that the chickens are laying again, I put some to good use... I am calling it "Meatloaf Surprise"

I have babied these peppers all winter. Since it will soon be time for the plants start growing again, I figured I'd get the peppers off the plants.

a few weeks ago, was the first time since 2008 I had to buy eggs. And I too, thought what puny eggs! I bought the extra large, brown eggs, but they were way smaller than what I get from my own chickens. I love being able to go out and gather fresh eggs, and herbs. And make my own cheese. I...

They are very much the same... except mine are with fresh goat cheese. I always thought I HATED Goat Cheese. All I had ever tasted was from the store. I hate the 'goatie" flavor. But when you make it fresh, it doesn't have that flavor at all! Now I LOVE (my own) Goat Cheeses.

Thanks!! I will have to pick up some pectin and give the jelly a try...

I have been looking for ways to preserve the many violets I have this year. There was an interesting book I got at the Library on "Flower Pounding" Here is my first attempt at Flower Pounding. I used watercolor paper. and I am planning to use it as a bookmark. And then there is always the...

Lavaneh is a Middle Eastern recipe for "cheese balls" in olive oil and spices. It is a good way to preserve cheese. Here is a link to the recipe http://www.sufficientself.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=13442 Here is the link to the pan. I have found it to be just perfect...

So far they have only been single yolks.

I finally got a photo of my Lavaneh and French Bread Toasts! I am so happy I got a special pan for making French Bread! It works great!! Now I can make my own little "toasts" for serving my cheeses.

I have one chicken that consistantly lays eggs that are too big for any carton or tray.

Well, the Lysine treatments are mostly for the Herpes I virus. It comes out at times of stress or an abundance of Arginine in the system. Your's sound more like a contact dermatitis/allergy sort of thing. That would be helped more by anti histamines like Benedryl.

I, too use Lysine at the first "tingle" on my lip, I take about a 1000mg an hour for a few hours, maybe for a day, and they never even "come out." Let me see if I can find a link for you on foods to avoid (Foods high in Arginine can cause the virus to express in many people)...
