50°F, rain, S 19 mph wind, YTD rain 13.08” Warnings- high wind and flooding I got off of work this morning and went strait to the urgent care in town this morning.

50°F, light rain, S 23 mph Wind, Rain YTD 11”. The paw paw seedlings I ordered a few days ago have arrived.

I pay off theContinueContinue reading “Paw Paws”
Brandywine Raspberry and Winter Sowing Update
50°F, Cloudy, NW 7 mph wind, YTD rain 10.59”. Before I left for work for the weekend, I got a little raspberry stick I picked up the other day from the hardware store potted up until I decide on a place in the yard for it. A brandywine raspberry which is a cross between aContinueContinue reading “Brandywine Raspberry and Winter Sowing Update”
Air Fryer 3 ingredient cake experiment
48°F, cloudy with light rain, NW 18 mph Wind, 9.69” ytd rain After planting my new rose in the rain, as it came barefoot in the mail yesterday afternoon, I got a hunkering for something baked and something sweet.

Onion Sets
45°F, Cloudy with mist, 0 wind, 9.32” rain ytd Thank goodness the snow has melted pretty quickly so I can start complaining about mud again 🤣🙌.

We May Be Warming Up
21/43°F, mostly sunny, SE 10 mph wind It was another cold night but I think I’m actually getting used to it. I’m going to tweak things in my camper for next winter that should solve or at least help with the cold drafts but I can honestly say this winter, although colder, and snowier thanContinueContinue reading “We May Be Warming Up”

https://videopress.com/v/fvuNqddP?resizeToParent=true&cover=true&preloadContent=metadata&useAverageColor=true 37°F, sunny, S 8 mph wind, 6.16” rain/year I’m getting mighty tired of having to clear my rig everyday! I left the Midwest to avoid this. Well, and the crappy politics of Indiana. But at least the sun is out and it was more ice than snow over night and is melting quickly inContinueContinue reading “More Snow & Ice”
Here goes nothing-
45°F, rain, S 18 mph Wind, Winter storm Warning. Attempting small loaves of bread in the small air fryer. I miss baking bread. I miss tasty bread. If it works, I’ll share the recipe. This isn’t sourdough but it’s a start. Edit: It’s passable and certainly better than store bought. But I still need toContinueContinue reading “Here goes nothing-“
More Wintersowing
45°F (started out 29°), sunny, calm I gathered a few more containers to get some early spring veggies planted- kale, cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, chard, etc. I had a little help from Freya kitten in the greenhouse. As I was puttering around I recalled there were some pvc pipes laying around. Have been for a veryContinueContinue reading “More Wintersowing”
Beautiful little bees
25°- 54°F, sunny, calm Once again it started out clear and icy. The sun is nice but I really miss having running water and a useable toilet. I’ve found the perfect sized bowl that fits perfect in my camper toilet, lined with compostable bags for compost buckets, and I bury them in the woods. ItContinueContinue reading “Beautiful little bees”
