Asparagus bed mostly cleaned out. Spent an hour on my butt cleaning out a clemantis that got trampled pretty good by raccoons. Got it cleaned and discovered a nice long vine coming back to life. Got it attached to a stake and a 1” square piece of wire fencing about a foot tall around the base. And used a couple of metal tent stakes on the fencing. I don’t think anyone will bother it this year as we no longer have an oriole feeder at the top. We moved it. Put a poison worm down our first mole tunnel. They work really good. Until the ground thaws some more impossible to til up the garden. Plenty of small jobs. Tomorrow I’ve got fruit tree fertilizer spikes to put in the ground near my pawpaws. Hubby cut off all the sucker limbs last fall, 7 or so and I am expecting a better harvest than last year (27). I already have a small amount of grape jelly in the oriole feeder. A week or 2 away at least on them. But a pair of chickadees have been tasting it.
You got a lot done, today! I have my Oriole feeders at the ready and two jars of Grape Jelly - if I have the usual number of birds, they’ll go through FIVE this Spring.
Thanks for the reminder!
I made the Cucumber Lemonade, today. Beau liked it and so did I. I cheated and just used a frozen container of Lemonade - seemed easier than making the simple syrup and who needs a CUP of sugar in their refreshment? Nope! My blender isn’t the best; I got the impression that ‘The Cheesecake Factory’ must have a ‘Bullet Blender’ or such, but a little bit of ‘pulp’ didn’t take away any of the yummy-ness. :)
I did SEED the peeled Cucumber as you suggested before giving it a whirl. ;)
