Coffee anyone ?

I have never heard of that tradition! Can I make enough for my whole state lol?
Woohoo! Great sale too! Nice welcome to 2021.

Must be a Southern thing. We love our peas, cowpeas to the rest of the country. LOL

Thanks for the coffee! I'm taking the tree down and putting away the few decorations I put out this year. Canning applesauce. Got a box of apples from the neighbors and it's been in the garage for 2 weeks. Hope they are still mostly good. Working on my footstool also, dh got the top ready for me. Overcast today. It's warm out there and melting snow.

Happy New Year everyone! long time no chat. I hope you are all well. life is just busy and with the loss of another llama I went with dogs here's one of them my new LGD Shamar. He will get to live with the kids that start in a couple of weeks since he's just 3 months old until he gets a little bigger. This shot is a couple of weeks old but there are no pictures today it's raining ice and snowing alternately.

Stay awhile and don't go away for so long! Glad to have you back.

How have you been? It has been crazy here. I am looking forward to kidding season that starts in three weeks. My kids will be first freshening two year olds. The big test: udders.

Warm and foggy this morning. Rain again today but, overnight. Too wet out there to do much of anything. Will work more on my inside clean & declutter efforts. Set up a new TV yesterday but, still some channel scanning to work out and learning the remote buttons. I've put this off for a few months......finally opened the box! It was a gift. The old one will get a ride to the dump later today, it's 18 yrs old. Time to change.

Shockingly, I found my lowly EIP money in my account yesterday!! Thanks uncle!

News on TV this morning showing the snow storms going on and sure makes me feel lucky to not have that here. Sorry for those of you who are dealing!

After 4" of rain, it is soggy outside, cloudy and 37 degrees. I just can't get excited about doing stuff outside. This is the first winter where we don't have 15 major projects lined up that must be done. There is stuff to do, but it is not imperative that we have to do it now, today. Eh. Maybe we are finally entering into maintenance mode, where we have all the major stuff done and now we just maintain what we have. That's ok with me!

Old cartoons on...kids and adults are moving slowly. Icy and wet....trying to figure out plans... just cloudy but very damp yet. So not sure we want to do the outdoor things we had planned.
DH needs more parts for the garden tractor but dealer is closed. Tree is down and put away.

It's supposed to rain all day, so I steeled myself to be chained to the kitchen. So far no rain... I will not be happy if they got this wrong and I'm stuck inside. Curse you weather forecaster!
Oh well, it all has to get done anyway. I ditched the applesauce canning yesterday, but did get Christmas put away and the house straightened up.
Just felt kind of meh, all day. Took Syringa and the dogs for a walk. The roads were too slick to ride, and now the shoulders are knee deep in snow.
Those 20 avocado I picked up were rock hard day before yesterday and today every one of them is soft! So guacamole making is in line with applesauce and banana bread.
If anybody needs me you will find me incarcerated in the kitchen.

@Baymule I'm thinking about gardening....you know how that is!! So what did you decide about the garden ground cover you used last year? Just watched a Utube about and thought you could update us. May be something to consider?
