Stuff I've been doing to amuse myself and prep for the upcoming season. First, cutting up paper egg cartons to make little pots for Nasturtium and Peas that I can directly plant in the ground when it's time. Five cartons will fit in a standard sized flat, but I had to cut off the last row. I shredded the leftovers and added them to my compost bins.

Been saving egg shells to crush up for the calcium. I add them to the planting holes of my tomatoes, peppers, cukes and zukes to prevent Blossom End Rot. Wear gloves when you crush them - those suckers are SHARP!

Made another batch of suet for the birds - added craisins this time. Eight of these little 'pucks' fit in a standard square suet cage.
