Taking Charge

What the bloody fuck? It’s going to be June in another hour June 1, so why on earth is there a frost advisory? Oh yeah, because Mother Nature hates me! Of course, I planted my seeds a week ago, which means that they’ve probably germinated. They haven’t popped yet, so they should be alright, [...]

Hi, I’m still alive. First things first, a belated Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers and mother figures out there. I spent most of my Sunday cooking and spending time with Mom. Made a cake and cooked dinner. My sister showed up Friday out of the [...]

Last week, Rob and I went blueberry picking on one of his days off. It was the last time for the year that we’ll be able to go, most likely. I didn’t think we’d get to go a second time and silly me, I forgot to take pictures while we were there. [...]

I have a major case of garden lust. Seriously. Why? The last couple years I’ve grown cucumbers, tomatoes and squash and not really had a whole ton of luck, even tho I’ve been gardening for years. My tomatoes that I started from seed all died because of a late frost. So [...]

Okay, so I’m officially annoyed with twitter.com. I can’t receive tweets from other people atm. No idea why, it says my ‘home’ page doesn’t exist, but my account is in tact, so it’s nothing I’ve done to get booted off. In a way, it’s okay because it’s one less distraction from the things [...]

I meant to add more information to the last post, but I didn’t have it handy, so we’ll discuss cherries more. The cherry variety that I am used to picking are what are known as Windsor cherries, they’re bright and plump and similar to a bing cherry. The cherries we picked, however, [...]

Today is update day. What does that mean? This is the post where-in I update about what I’ve been up to. Last I posted anything significant was Monday. Egads. So here we go! The first update of however many I get around to writing.
Tuesday was deemed cherry [...]
