Random Tidbits
Woke up to no coffee (again). Our first one broke down before Thanksgiving. Our Army daughter had a cheap-o version in the garage.
Well, we obviously wore it out. I woke up to it not brewing this morning. So, so bummed.
I'm forced to drink organic instant to wake up, then wait for the rain to give me a break, and pop up the camper and get are third back up pot out of the camper. There is a fourth back up too (the kind you heat up over a campfire).
On a good note.....

Growing Heirloom Peanuts
I'm very late in posting about the peanuts, so it's being posted today.
We grew heirloom peanuts last year. A small "test" patch area of the garden, and although a few did not sprout leaves, many did.
We planted Negrito Manduvi peanuts, and purchased the starter peanuts from Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Co.
We pulled the plants (or I should say "I" pulled them), and allowed the tops to dry before removing the peanuts.
