This is a dangerous time of year. Deep snows, numbing cold, harsh winds . . . .

. . . and worse, I’m filling out seed orders for the year!

My wallet is already feeling the pain.

LOL. We haven’t ordered yet, but hubby has 2 handwritten pages already. No way we have room for all of that.

Then today he saw the really big Baker’s Creek Catalog at Country Mart, and so he bought it. No telling how many pages he’ll get from that.

“...and worse, I’m filling out seed orders for the year! My wallet is already feeling the pain.”

LOL! I’ve got a stack of catalogs with a LOT of circled items in them. ;)

One change I AM making this year is to limit my tomato choices to DETERMINATE plants. I’ll still have plenty to eat fresh and make into my famous ‘V-12 Juice’ and Salsa, but I won’t have them taking up as much acreage in the garden beds!

My least-favorite garden chore is pruning tomatoes (I hate that smell!), and even THEN have to climb through a JUNGLE to get at the fruits! Grrrr!

I’m sure you already know this, but Farm & Fleet is having ‘Chick Days’ this coming week! Are you adding to the flock this year? We’re building the coop this coming spring. Excited! I miss having hens SO MUCH! :) A coop and a greenhouse were part of Beau’s ‘dowry’ to coax me out here. ;)
