Well tomarrow is the last day of dh's vacation for now at least. So today we went to a fly tie shop to get some stuff to make some flies. See yesterday we got a couple of really nice ones at a yard sale that dh didn't have. So of course we need to make some and keep these for patterns. Which is...

Well the biggest thing I have been working on this week is garden stuff. Got 2 of the raised beds planted. Which was nice as I put out plants in them. Got part of my tomatoes planted. Need more pepper plants and will take care of it this week. If the weather is nice enough this week I need to...

Well I went back to Lowes on Monday. And I got 6 more of the blackberry plants for $3 as well. CVK they grow here we just have to fight the wild birds for them. And I am hoping by putting these new ones closer to the house it will help. I didn't want to move the ones I have already till I got...

I bought these from a different source and highly recommend them, they are safer, CHEAPER, and less messy than candles and last much longer. YOU NEED TO STOCK ENOUGH CANDLE LIGHT FOR AT LEAST ONE CANDLE PER NIGHT FOR A YEAR, MINIMUM. It beats the hell out of just cursing the darkness after all the...

Let's see. I made an order for some FD Fruit this week. That should be here in the next couple of days. It is hard to raise fruit when you have long winters. We got some welding done by a friend to redo something we had done at a shop that was messed up. And when we went out to pick it up I...

Just for giggles and grins I plucked ONE half price angel food cake out of the WHOLE GROCERY cart full of them marked half price in the bakery section of my Fred Meyer grocery, with the idea of trying to slice and DRY it in my barely on 200 degree oven as a "prep" dessert or treat. I should...
