    Great forecast, new spring plantings

    I just looked at the long ranger and it seems like, if the weatherman is anywhere near right, over the next two weeks my spring patio container garden will get the perfect temps and scattered rain for establishing. THRILLED!! We should be in the 60s, even some 70s for an extended period. And no c...

    Delicious Turnip Greens

    Yummo! A nice picking of turnip greens this morning. Probably 2 tight handfuls. I’ll put them in the frig to wait for more to add to them in a couple days then I’ll stew them up and put on a big pone of cornbread. Oh they are so tender and delicious. Perhaps just a few for a salad to...
