Pinging the list. Happy Turkey day everyone - I will be pinging on Black Friday, in case anyone else wants to stay home and avoid the crowds.
We have a caterpillar somewhere in my grouping of plants. :(
Need to put another deer in the cooler this weekend, replace the broken window panes on the cold frame, retrieve a load of firewood from the sawmill, and a dozen other things that won't all get done. lol
I got the garden mostly cleaned up last weekend. I need to pick the last of the green beans and tear out two rows of tomato plants to be finished for the year. Salad, kale and beets are still going strong.
All the rain filled the pond up to the cut in the dam. It was getting really hard to dig so a little water at this point in time isn't all bad. I tossed the trash pump in after work yesterday. Will be interesting to see how long it takes to empty it back out.
Seriously, it's a fun, easy and satisfying thing to do.
P.S.: The smell that emanates from my drying room is overwhelming. You don't get this from cheap/old saffron.
Got to go now. Catch you later this weekend sometime.
ty for pingin’ me ! love to all on the garden thread i’ll be home on BF ping away
I, for one, will NOT be shopping on Thanksgiving afternoon or Black Friday. Never have and never will! I much rather be playing in the dirt, picking my vine ripe tomatoes, green beans and tending my sugar snap peas that are coming along to provide me a great treat come January! :) Winter in Florida does give us some more “cold weather crop” goodness. And sugar snap peas do great during Florida winters! :)
We’ll have a house full. Thanksgiving is a wonderful time for us to gather friends, light the fireplace, put out the snackers, set up the serving counter in the kitchen, and let everyone pick their faves for dinner. After dinner, find a place on the couch or floor for the football game, groan,... because everyone has eaten too much. It’s a wonderful time. Then comes snack time with leftovers during half time, more groans, discussing who did what and should have done “that”. It’s a wonderful time.
I’ll be home reading your ping. Have a Happy!
Thanks g.e.!
I’ll be home on Black Friday. These is absolutely nothing that could make me go to the mall shopping.
Gardening pots doing well. I’m very pleased that the peas are doing so well in the bright indirect sunlight. Pansies blooming nicely. It has been raining all day and temperatures will drop into the 30’s. Think I’ll cover up the plants.
