- March 02, 2008, 08:24:16 AMWe had a BLAST! Ya'll missed it 
Nya na na nya na
And just wait till you see the front yard! It still needs some work but it looks a far cry better than it did!
We weren't juggling cats yesterday. Shovels, sage plants, bulbs, and wheelbarrels maybe but no cats.
There's nothing better than a good day's work where you actually have something to show for it in the end. When I used to be in the military, there were soo many days that I would go in spend the whole day at my desk and at the end wonder, "what the hell did I do today? I know I was busy."
That's why I love yard work, at the end you can satnd back and say, "wow! we did that?!

Sorry I can't make it; my head cold is attacking with a vengeance.
I only hope I can still manage to get this thing under control for tonight, but being out in the cold will just aggravate the damn thing. I'm sorry.
we got alot done and didn't really expect you anyhow. You have too much burning in the fire as it is. Will and Caryn never cease to amaze me with their dedication.
"we bask in the glory of their turbulence..." or some shit

- February 29, 2008, 09:42:30 PMSoup is done. I am listing what's in it here so I don't forget anything and don't waste paper printing it out
Water
Veggie Broth
Rapsunel Veggie cubes
Potatoes
Nooch
Sea Salt
Dulse
Kelp
Garlic
Carrots
Corn
Celery
Watercress
Scallions
Tomatoes
Tomato paste
Tomato puree
Lemon Juice
JO Spice
The crockpot is split in two and I won't add the meat until it's at the grove and stable so it doesn't migrate into the non meat side. The meat is crab and the non meat side will have long grain and wild rice added. Left for CRAB and RIGHT for RICE. I'd have liked to eliminate anything canned but alas I didn't have the time or good source for tomatoes to make it totally from scratch, it's still yummers though.

- February 29, 2008, 07:22:36 PMYep I gotta get another grow light next week and it will be off to the races with the seed starters.
I'll be bringing a salad tomorrow and some bread and maybe some other stuff.
Definitely the drums, indoor and outdoor wear, implements of digging and gloves
Garden gloves! That's a must! It will be chilli!

- February 28, 2008, 08:03:28 PMOk dokie sounds good. We'll bring some wood and our drums, food, warm clothes, diggy tools and some energy hehe. So we'll be there between noon and one.
As much as I want to start putting seeds in I know it's too early so I guess damage control is our best bet hehe.

- February 28, 2008, 07:57:05 PMOh yes, last frost won't be till April sometime but you will probably be able to put them outside some during the day in March. That's always fun, bring them in, take them out, bring them in, take them out.
BTW, the yard is mostly mud so wearing some warm boots for the yard and bringing a pair of slip-ons for inside is going to be a must. We'll have to be taking our shoes off on the porch.
And yes, warm soups sound great! I'll try to get by panera an get some of their heavy duty multi-grain bread. Maybe grab some humus and vegi's or something.

- February 28, 2008, 05:52:56 PMI have seeds but my seedlings are still inside. I doubt if we planted them right now they'd make it outside. BUT my roma tomato has sprouted the purdy little thing and four of 'em they are reaching for the sun so I think Ima have to get that grow light I was talking about. So far the bathroom greenhouse experiment is working...zippie.

- February 28, 2008, 01:32:34 PMSounds good, I'll check with Will. Its too early to find new plants at the store but folks could pick up some daffodils since we moved all ours to the back.
We could plant the irises in the back along the trees and in the woods, they would do OK back there and look nice to boot.
See discussion of the Naturalist Guild list as to what we are going to put in the gardens. Right now we are just preparing the soil and getting everything ready. And moving the sage back out, its not looking happy under the porch.

- February 28, 2008, 09:52:59 AMwell i just talked to crystal she's coming down sunday but not saturday. However I don't wanna interrupt the workshop so Saturday might be better. I am down with noonish Saturday. Too much earlier and I'd be dragging a sleeping squirrel with me rofl. Let me know, and what food. I am thinking some crockpot soup like last time. Nice and thick to warm out the chill of working in the gardens. I'll do two like before. I crab one and and a vegan one. Bread always goes good with dat.
So let me know.
