Parsley Sprouted

It took forever, but some of the parsley seeds have sprouted.  Makes me feel like Spring is just about here.

This morning however, it's snow covered and frozen slush everywhere.  School is closed.  It's 8°F out.  I'm thinking it's a crochet-PBS/Netlfix sort of day.  I got about 12 rows done on the baby blanket, maybe I can get 12 more on today.

Last night we had grilled cheese sandwiches with cowboy candy and Ezekiel bread, and home canned tomato soup.  I didn't need the cheese, but it was nice on a cold night. 

Our county is under a level 1 road emergency, and some a level 2 (which is the worst it's been this winter).  I'm ready for porch time, bare feet and sunshine.

I wish I could grow parsley; if the cats don't get it, the butterfly larvae do. LOL
Been raining and blowing off and on lately. I was going to hang my newest birdhouse (looks like a frog prince) but I didn't want it blowing through some window, so it's still sitting on the porch. Maybe tomorrow I'll hang it.
Ever thought about making bows to sell at craft fairs with your usual fare? I was reading and article about how a formerly homeless woman turned making bows into a multi-million dollar business, hiring women across the US to help with production.
We're having ribs today, with smashed taties. Bro Tom brought home half a dozen Bob Evans smashed taties knock-offs that got sent to his store by accident. They were going to throw them out, but he stopped them and asked if he could have them. They said sure, so now I just have to figure out how to use them all. I was thinking maybe Shepherd's Pie tomorrow. That would be good, plus it's gluten free which I can eat and tolerate well.
Praying everyone has a wonderful weekend, and a safe one too.
God bless.

I too am looking forward to barefeet time and getting out into the garden. It feels like it has been a very long Winter.
RB, thanks for the idea. I'm not sure if there is a market here for those or not. Some things sell and others don't.
mamasmercantile, it has been a long winter for sure.

God bless.

Apples and Tomatoes Oh My!

  The early morning weather here has been downright chilly.  One morning it was 42 degrees.  Flower beds have been weeded.  The herb garden is next in line, but I do need to figure out what to do with all the rosemary plants I planted in the actual vegetable garden.  I have not mastered keeping them alive all winter indoors.  They will not survive the winter if left outside. Did any of my blog writing followers locate a better "blog" platform online?  Just curious if anyone is moving from blogger. 

Under the Weather ~ What's Growing?

  I have not been around in blogland much, due to being under the weather after I pushed myself way to far one day.  I have to remember we cannot do it all in one day.  Thank goodness for teas and tinctures, and healing foods (and rest).  We are feeling better. As for our blogs being used for advertising on many websites, and so forth (I can't see any other reason for the source of views: howstuffworks, dominospizza, mayoclinic {not the blog readers interested in my actual blog}) the numbers continue to climb.  I have not found a way to "opt" out either.  If any of you find a new way to avoid this, blog elsewhere, find a new platform etc, please be sure to share.   If your blog has ads, you are are not going to complain, ha ha!  You are probably making a bucko-bucks with all these visitors to your blog. Okay, back to the update post . . .

16 Weeks Until Christmas

  It's not hard to believe that we are traveling closer to the winter holidays.  I'm trying to focus on enjoying every single day until then, but I am fitting in a few snippets of holiday preparing.  Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year.  It's hard to believe it's the last day of August. I have not yet gotten rid of the links to all the advertisers using my blog posts, but again, still working on it. However, my profile has gone from my blog, and while I am in settings, it is not able to add as a "gadget" to the blog.  Weird things are happening.   Google had a data breach recently as well, so gmail users were advised to change passwords.  Not sure what else is going on, but just in case you are wondering why my "profile" is not on my blog any longer.   Okay, back to the Christmas countdown post . . .
