My two gallon jars have a LOT of lime sitting on the bottom. I'm also so flush with eggs right now that I will have to set up another jar -- or 2 or 4 -- to keep up with production. Hubby didn't care for the waterglassed eggs. The yolks all broke, and he likes his morning eggs over easy. So I...

Sunny sat on my lap for a while today. She was staring intently just over my shoulder, but I couldn't turn around to see what she saw, or she would have jumped down. Maybe she was staring AT my shoulder, thinking, I used to be able to jump up there...

Bella puts up with so much from that pup!

@Hickory_Hills, Howdy! We're having a potluck get together on Saturday, June 29th. Here's more information: https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/06-29-2024-lansing-michigan-chickenstock.1614878/

I dug a lot of heavy clay today. I'm digging out the perimeter of the heavy soil garden, and I got one of the short ends done. The other short end is where the grape vines are, and I dug that area a few weeks ago. That's what gave me the idea. I also split 3 sunflowers that were in one pot into...

Because they don't have the guts to say, "Well, it's been nice knowing you, but I doubt I'll ever see you again."

I have more online friends than IRL friends. When you live way out in the boonies, it's easy to lose contact with people you used to see all the time. They don't want to drive "all the way out there." You try to keep in touch, but when you can't just bop on over for coffee, or get together for...

I got a lot done today! I dug out a lot of heavy clay soil, got it moved. I might be feeling this tomorrow. That's ok If it's rainy, I can take a nap...

That my best friend was honest. I was shocked to learn that she cheated on tests.

It also rose better and higher.

I've heard they're easy to find with a blacklight. They fluoresce.

You sell those for $5?!?! You should charge more than that. I've made a few bags, and mind aren't nearly as nice. (I don't sell them.) I used to make some of my own clothes. Now I just mend stuff. And make a few bags. Bags made from feed bags are STURDY! They really last.

^^The best one, IMO, right there.

It is. I had a PBJ sandwich for dinner. AWESOME!! When you're GF, you can get emotional about a really good bread. 🥲

I have to admit, I was hesitant to commit to getting a mixer. I didn't want to give up the counter space, and we don't have a good place to store it. They're heavy and awkward to move. In the pantry in the mudroom? Have to be on the floor, which means lifting. In the basement? The pantry down...
