    Clstratton- a long ways to go in self-sufficiency!

    I am my father's daughter. It's been a while. We've been busy. Planted grass in the backyard, and put in the garden. We have tomatoes, peppers, broccoli (all started from seed in the basement), then we put in onion sets (red and yellow), planted green beans, corn, acorn squash, Snack Jack and...

    I would love to meet you for lunch, but recently had you for dinner and breakfast, so I'll probably have to pass on the lunch. But might I recommend the Temecula Pizza Company (or something like that, but not California Pizza Kitchen)? It has a delicious pizza called "The White Lady" which your...

I told Carl it was going to be the rotation of the in-laws. Abigail is going to be in Seventh Heaven to see three of her grandparents in as...

    Oh boy. Looks like the world is in big trouble now. What does it mean if you are an Independant? Or a right leaning Democrat or a left-leaning Republican? I guess either way I have brain damage. Oh well. So do my children. At least Abigail does. That would explain why she doesn't listen.

    A.A.A.D.D

    I told DH that's why nothing gets done around our house. I try to multi-task. He said "Just take things one at a time. Just one at a time." HA! I must get it from my father... :lau

    Taser Story

    I forgot to add the disclaimer. I didn't write this. I got it in an e-mail. I only wish I could write this well.

    Taser Story

    Last weekend I saw something at Larry's Pistol & Pawn Shop that sparked my interest. The occasion was our 15th anniversary and I was looking for a little something extra for my wife Julie. What I came across was a 100,000-volt, pocket/purse- sized tazer. The effects of the tazer were supposed...

    Now THIS is FUNNY!!

    I got this one in an e-mail a while ago from DH's boss. I love bathroom humor. Cracks me up everytime. With this one, even though I had read it before, I was still chuckling (silently, as I tend to do). I sure don't want to get close to that chili though, that's for sure!

    Clstratton- a long ways to go in self-sufficiency!

    We always welcome cheap labor. Especially when cheap labor brings free babysitting. :D

    Clstratton- a long ways to go in self-sufficiency!

    Finally planted the tomato seeds. So far I am hoping for three Roma plants, nine Cherry tomatoes (Supersweet 100), and nine Early Girls. Also replanted some broccoli seeds, since some of them failed to sprout. And all the jalapeno peppers have sprouted. There's one we are keeping an eye on...

    Idaho Anyone?

    I think I just can't spell and my dad was being onery about it. What a pain in the butt. And I can say that since he lives 2000 miles away and can't do anything about it. That and he loves his grandkids too much. :tongue :bun

    Idaho Anyone?

    I am glad they are friendly in your future neck of the woods. My neighbors aren't nearly as friendly. Downright snobs. But I guess that is city living for you, right? Love that they keep inviting you to church. Cracks me up. Gotta love the Mormons. :) Edited for spelling.

    I guess it all depends on which thread they check first. The journal or this one?

    "I've trying to get a job in this field, wildlife biology, for almost 4 years now." Found this on someone's journal today. Bet you all can figure out who. :lau :lau :lau :hide Love you Poppers! I'm sure fast fingers strikes again, right?

    Mackay's Back To The Land Project- The Fruits of Our Labor

    You know Aspen can get a fungal disease of some sort (leaf blight maybe?) that makes their leaves bad for compost? I really like Acer grandidentatum, I think common name is Big-leaf maple, or maybe canyon maple. They are native to Idaho and have gorgeous fall color. As for the UI seed nursery...

    Mackay's Back To The Land Project- The Fruits of Our Labor

    Mackay, it looks great! I am sadden that you planted hybrid poplars (Cottonwoods), but I understand why you did it. They do grow fast, so you probably want a nice windbreak sooner rather than later. You should really look into the Idaho Native Plant Society and plant some natives. They are just...
