I just licked my arm. Bleeck!!! I guess you taste more aphiddy than I do. Maybe you got the Asian lady bug beetles. I read that they can bite.

Hey, if I had kids who cared enough to complain, I'd have their butts out here helping, especially with the dangerous or really heavy stuff. After all, Christmas is coming and ALL kids wanna be on Santa's "good side". :D =D As for pictures. Here's the one of me nearly falling off the ladder. And...

Thanks...but could you just keep them there next time? I guess I am becoming a lady bug expert (thank you Google). It seems there are hundreds of species, but two "types". The lady bug/lady beetle and the Asian lady beetle. Neither are native to the US. Tell them apart? Ask an entomologist. You...

Can Prince come out and play? I wish he would come visit with me for about a week. We could have a wonderful playdate. P.s. Does he do electrical wiring?:lol::highfive:

I don't know the answer to your question, but more knowledgable folks will porbably be along shortly. It would probably be easier to answer with just a little more info from you. What will you do with the skulls? Rabbit breeds range from just a couple of pounds to nearly 20 lbs. Best breed would...

Well, no re-runs cause no tv. And I HOPE its not from falling off the ladder @Baymule If that happens, I suppose I'll just sit (or lie) around reading all the stuff here on BYH that I'm never going to catch up on otherwise.

Oh, don't worry. I found the nail I used in the kitchen "junk drawer". Besides, I drove it in with a crescent wrench (heavy) because I broke my hammer yesterday, pulling roofing nails out of the deserted barn. Why do they even MAKE fiberglass hammer handles? I haven't bought a nail in years.

This might sound mean, but honest its not meant to be. Who cares? He's free, 5 years old, friendly, and cute as a bug's ear. My dog is a pound rescue and if anyone asks her "breed" I tell them she's a "sooner", just as sooner be one breed as another. Twizzler is adorable. That's enough. You're...

It's "pity party" time. Homesteading, farming, ranching. Call it what you will IT'S TOUGH! Everybody on here already knows that. Then you add in lack of experience, a former lifetime of sedentary work, age aches and pains and stiffness, super limited budget and the toughness intensifies. Then...

May I have a couple patties of that sausage? Sounds delish! Do you have outside fat added to that? Like venison or rabbit gets? Gonna be beautiful in mid 60s here today. Anxious to get outside.

Whew. It's been so long since you made an entry, I thought you had fotgotten about us waiting on another installment. Glad you're doing well on the new job, and it sounds already like your new co-workers are nicer than the old ones.

Thanks for this reply. You helped wake me up, and get back to reality. I had a firm goal and mission, but the difficulty of easily finding the stock I wanted, sidetracked me. What was I thinking? There is still good quality stock available for a meat program, and my goal is to fill my freezer...

I'll have a cup with you this morning. Nothing else doing, anyhow. Had a great lunch yesterday with sister and her friends. Wonderful for about 2 hours. Then the eating and gossip was all finished. Spent the rest of the day watching tv and wishing I was getting work done at home. Have some...

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Animals tended, bisquits made. Black beans & rice hot in the crockpot. Eggs deviled. And ham cooked yesterday (sister hates turkey). Off to the big city to enjoy the holiday w/ family and friends. Hope everyone has a GREAT Turkey day.

That was easy. I typed "orange spider with big abdomen" and it popped right up. Its an orb weaver, also called "pumpkin spider" and non venomous. Glad now I didn't step on her.

Ok. NOT a spider guy. But spiders seem to be big on here. So, this afternoon, on my back steps......you tell me what it is? Kinda camera shy, and my hands are a little shaky, but hope you can see it.

I saw those pictures in your Journal. And you told me in another post that you're not Southern. You could have saved your breath, because in the journal you referred to a "hollow" being spooky. Had you been a southern girl you would have called that a "holler". New right away that you didn't...

I'm not much of a cook, but I do follow the rule book. It's right there in the Book of Rules for Grandma cooking. Rule number 37. Giblet gravy MUST have chopped boiled egg.

??? Ok, I'm new at this, and a little thick....but what do you mean by angling the crocks? They're just heavy round bowls. How do I angle them, and which way is out? And our hottest month is supposed to be July, with an average high that month of 92f. Of course this year we broke that by a...

Ladybugs. You gotta love em! They eat aphids and other garden pests, but not the garden. And legend has it, they bring good luck. But i don't need THIS MUCH good luck. When I moved into the house, it had been vacant (except for two legged squatters who broke in and stayed awhile) for several...
