    I had okra at school a lot the coupla years spent in TN as a kid. I don't see it grown up here in IN much. I prefer it breaded and fried, but it is good stewed in diced tomatoes and onions with black pepper, garlic powder and salt. It would be fine using minced garlic too. I topped it with some...

    Suspension is a good idea and I have considered a lean to on the side of the garage. One of the church Elders is a retired carpenter.

    Once I have my own property, I will definitely build extra out buildings as the needs arise. The church doesn't want their parsonage and back portion of the property becoming too much of a farm. ONE DAY I will have less restriction, I hope. The grill I have has a large cooking surface, and in...

    I haven't raised FG, but I'm told the bone density does impede the meat to bone ratio. Processing young fryers at a similar age of 10-12 weeks should give similar meat results as more common meat sizes. I am also told a cross of NZ and FG gives a good meat rabbit, but haven't tried it. My wife...

    This bit of Americana artwork from the Hoosier state is called, Hafta pull out the tractor and mower to get to the grill. It is a slice of my life and I think it looks pretty good.

    I love morrels, so if there's a mushroom that I can domesticate and cook it when I want, AND it tastes like chicken, winner winner chicken dinner! The shroom idea Joe points out sounds like a winner too

    Shared a couple of these on Bruce's page, but figured I can find them easier down the road if I put some here.

    Anyone familiar with and or tried "chicken of the woods mushrooms"? It is supposed to be a dead ringer when cooked to taste like chicken. I guess it can also be dried and ground to make gravy or soup. You can buy a "log starter" and grow your own. I am pretty intrigued.

    High Desert Cowboy- How far is it up north?

    I am with you. I have a 1500 Silverado 4x4 and next time it's gonna be a 2500 at least. Probably no dually, but might get a flat bed full ton with duallies for work and a 4x4 pickup for general light work, mud, and snow... Obviously I have more dreams and plans than money. Haha

    High Desert Cowboy- How far is it up north?

    I was going to say, looks like a heavy load, prior to reading your post. I hope you have no repairs on the roof, and the window won't be too big a task. That scenario sounds exactly like everyday for me too. Sometimes you have to laugh to let out some of the crazy because keeping it in would be...

    What was the one ahead of Florence? Edward? Don't remember, but it hit more Gulf states, right? We got 5" clear this far inland. Surely you will get some rain with the remnants of Florence here in the next week or so.

    I got my two cuttings and decided with all the raking by hand and baling by hand, that was enough! I just got that field cut down today, and it was as high as the hood of my Craftsman. I probably could have used a third cut of hay, but will wait til Spring and plan to buy a hay rake for Class 0...

    Is this supposed to be a pitch a tent or find a place in the barn pitch in and visit? Seems a long drive to make 2x in one day!

    Boys will improve, especially if taught to clean up one's mess and be responsible and respectful for other's use of the facilities. I like the Lysol wipes idea of wiping down the porcelain and floor area as long as my boys wouldn't try to flush them and mess up the plumbing.
