@TJAnonymous make sure you have a place to put it before you buy one. The medium, and I think the large, need their own 15Amp, with nothing else running on it-20Amp is even better, but most don't have those kicking back, relaxing in disuse. AND the room, when it's running needs to stay below...

I've done cooked eggs, and I'll never do them again. Raw eggs will be done the next time I have a load of eggs to do. I understand those rehydrate beautifully and make great egg products and go into baked goods well. (I will let you know.) I also have not done meat yet. I'll also let you know...

Tomorrow I have ice cream squares, shoo fly cake, and cooked french toast sticks going in. All are for boy scout summer camp.

I'd be miserable in pants.

Pull the trigger if you can manage it, is all I have to say. I was waiting for the price to drop, which it hasn't in 10 years. AND I was waiting for the pump technology to improve, which it did by leaps and bounds. I also wanted to see one in person, which is easy now as many hardware big box...

They've been radiating mail for ages, since the anthrax thing in, what was that? 2000? 2001?

I used to like BC seeds. Something changed about 5/6 years ago. I don't know what it was. They got too large? Too corporate, while not being so? :🤷:

Pulled the strawberries from the freeze dryer. 15 hours. They are amazing. Next up are either more strawberries, if I can get the same deal, or some sweet potato chips. The tomato plants are coming along in the greenhouse. The herb and perennial garden look fabulous. We're actually having a...

I came across this in a vintage cookbook today.

They were parts of onion sets that got lost in the tomato plant row last year. The tops died off and I forgot all about them. They are now thicker and taller than I've ever seen, about 2 feet high. At one point, when they were about 4 inches high, a rabbit chewed them down to about an inch...

I THINK I saw a hummingbird last night. I refilled the feeders, so we'll see. The yogurt container starts that I up-potted the other day are over their transplant shock and are shooting up. This time next week, I'll up pot them again to their solo cups. A gallon of strawberries have been...

Yes, our hay fields are all alfalfa and prairie brome. In the world of drought, crappy soil, and prairie fires, it's an amazing plant.

I mix it up, adding a little more sugar and get out of its way again. Sometimes it works just fine, sometimes not.

We grow brome on purpose, LOL

The rabbits do that for me.
