I Hate To Say “I Told You So,” So I’ll say “I told him so.” (Yes, I mean Dave.) Two summers ago, when we did some new plantings around the house (after 13 years of living here), Dave was set on Blue Fescue in a large area back by the pool. Having dabbled in [...] Well, not cream. Half and half. Dave went to Costco again the other day. He brought home these. For those of you following along, I am not allowed to complain if he is doing the shopping. However, please note that if Dave were to take notice of his surroundings, he might have seen [...] With the Help of Heavy-Duty Concrete Reinforcing Wire. I finally bought my tomato and pepper plants. I should really buy them sooner. Actually, I should start them from seed in March. Better yet, I should save my seed from the previous year, thereby keeping only the best… You see? You see the black hole [...] …Lest there is anyone else as gullible as I. We are surrounded by things that should illegal: Motorcycles without mufflers, Barbie commercials that make them look like they can walk by themselves, food labeling that want you to believe a fruit snack is as good for you as the real thing, and …plant descriptions that [...] In Minnesota, anything is possible. Anything with the weather, that is. On Saturday, I laid in bed, reading, working on my computer, happy. The weather map showed a great big sunshine with a high of 83. Not sure why that was, because out my window it was windy, cold, and 48 degrees. And then, in [...] My First Rhubarb Love That, of course was before I fell for Al Sicherman. But I recently made this cake, after about a year hiatus. Morgan declared it her personal favorite. I suspect that’s mostly because she always sides with my mom. They have this little thing going. Have I ever mentioned that Morgan [...] For the uninitiated, this is better known as: Stage Three. “Dave,” I ask, “Is there anyone you want to brown-nose at the office?” “No, not really.” “Charlie. Do your teachers want more asparagus?” “No, I don’t think so.” “Morgan?” “NO MOM!” I rack my brain… Who has told me they would do anything for [...] Grandpa Hank is my father in-law and this is his old-time salad dressing for fresh-from-the-garden lettuce — which I just harvested yesterday. I suppose I could write this as a Meatless Monday recipe, but I didn’t because it really isn’t enough for a meal. But it IS the only way my kids would ever eat [...] I need a garden fix. I want to weed. I want to escape this stupid computer and stupid soccer and get the Hell out of my office. My dog is ready to implode. I have chicks in my laundry room. The cats are sitting in the trees with the bird feeders. It’s raining. It’s [...] That is not an attention grabbing headline, guys. I’m serious. This thing is insane. But, I suppose I should qualify that statement by telling you that my previous tool had been the same one my mom handed to me when I was 10 and sent me out the front door. You [...] |
