Are you out shopping today?
Not me. I tried it out about twenty years ago, and that was it for me. Especially now that we’re so far from the big city, I’d have to get up at 3am to be there to stand in line. No thank you. Especially with this morning’s news about [CLICK TO CONTINUE...]

Thanks to Tara over at Feels Like Home for including my post Turkey Soup from your Thanksgiving Turkey in the 91st Make It From Scratch Carnival.

I promised I’d share some pictures of the baby plants. These are lettuce babies.
Unfortunately, I went out to check on the garden this afternoon before milking, and they were all gone, every last green baby leaf, gone. I was pretty bummed out, and annoyed with myself as there are a few small holes [CLICK TO CONTINUE...]

On November 2nd, I paid $2.39 for unleaded.
By November 19th, it had dropped by thirty-five cents, to $2.04.
The next day, on the 20th, when I saw it was down under two dollars a gallon, I just had to stop and fill up my tank in celebration.

I’m so excited! I came home yesterday and looked at the garden for the first time since Saturday afternoon to find there are lots of baby plants coming up!! I recognized lots of peas, radishes and I am pretty sure kale and broccoli. But we’ll have to see as they mature. They are DEFINITELY [CLICK TO CONTINUE...]

Yes, you heard that right. I’m a woman, and yet I wear the most comfortable men’s shoes. They are called Nevados Madison and I found them at Big 5 Sporting Goods. They often go on sale for $19.99 a pair and I stocked up when I found them for that price. The Nevados Arlington [CLICK TO CONTINUE...]

I’ve been feeling bummed out over the last week since it appears that my latest idea to thwart the gophers wasn’t going to work out. The main problem is we didn’t mix our heavy clay soil in with the compost that we shoveled into the pallet bed. As a result, the compost is light [CLICK TO CONTINUE...]

I had hoped to figure out this month if using the hot water heater timer was going to make any difference in our electricity bill.
Two things happened so that I won’t know for sure, at least not this month, or the next.
