I think many ppl would be terrified if they ever found out exactly what was in the food the FDA has approved in the U.S. It amazes me every day that Americans are still walking upright.
I am not surprised […]

it isn’t the already dead animals that are causing that in domestic animals. it is when they add the ones that are sick, mad cow comes to mind. and all the fillers they are using for it. They add everything […]

Kim, my daughter would just love this! I have only one problem with it, I cannot knit. not because I dont know how, but because the sound of knitting actually causes my teeth to hurt.
Is there a way to do this in crochet ? -

This is disturbing news. There is far to many ways that not so savory ppl could easily become greedy, and corupt. Leading to far too many ppl becoming sick from one animal.
Way too much freedom, in some […]

grrrr, after paying almost 10 dollars a dozen for canning jars all summer, I found an Amish store that sells them for 4.00 a case.
Oh well, live and learn, I will be picking up some serious jarage in a couple of weeks. I have been allowing myself 20.00 a month for jars, this month, I will have loads of them to get filled up.

This is a bit late in the answering, but, we’re moving. Our landlord won’t do the renovations that we paid for, and legally we can’t do them, or force her to do them. So, were outta here. ( just as soon as we can be that is )

Wendy, yes, we are still in kentucky, living in the shed, for now. We are working on getting the heck out of here though. Looking to move back out west.
Kim, thank you. I am hoping to be able to spend more time in here, now that we have the online where it doesn’t download every visited page to the computer.

what about some kind of trade type of thing? that way no money is exchanging hands. Although it would have to be done on a small scale. I do agree it is sad with the way things are.

I have a few tomatoes, not much more than a bowl or two of them. However, my 19 tomatoe plants are doing wonderful, even with the temperature drops… they are over 7 feet tall atm. I guess I did something right, but how to get them to stop growing, and start producing some tomatoes? lol

Pinch the ends of the plants so that it doesn’t grow any taller. It will force growth of fruit.

I finally got a pressure canner. It was given to me about 4 months ago. so far I have canned chicken, fruit coctail, cinnamon pears, grape & cherry jam, and Strawberry & Cherry jam. I bought a bushel of johnathan apples and will be getting them canned, along with the few tomatoes that actually grew this year.

Lucky you getting fresh apples!!!
