Thank the goddess you didn't! They are crazy invasive, have massive thorns, and cause your allergies to go apes*it. They suck for firewood, and dull your chainsaw faster than any other tree I've dealt with. I absolutely hate Russian Olive Trees.
I do a lot of crock pot cooking in the fall and winter. Lots of chicken noodle, pasole, chicken and dumplings, and beef stews. Roasts and bbq shredded chicken are a year around thing.

Dump 1 can of cream of mushroom or cream of chicken on top.
Fresh minced garlic
5 washed potatoes

I live in a green valley looking out to the desert scrubs.
I can't wait until tomorrow! My moon roof is letting in all kinds of mosquitos!I went to Lowe's and bought everything I needed to patch the roof. Thank the goddess for military discounts.
Luckily, he had enough Jack that he didn't feel any pain, so I threw a hammer at him, missed, and hit the brand new flat screen tv! Now I'm kicking myself in the rear! Man, I love that tv!
Then DH went to the refrigerator and started taking shots of Jack. He then proceeded to get on what was left of the roof and did his own impromptu version of Riverdance!
