All fresh and new.
Junie, if the weather is nice then Bbq and sides might be a good choice.
It is a cooler day here, finally. I think we had the hottest July ever.

I agree on the food, but I can't count on t that ahead of time....I may just do BBQ meat in the oven though...thanks.
Good morning. It is overcast here...that is better than 98 F I guess.

I joined here in August of 2003. 19 years ago!!! Doesn't seem that long.
Sunny, we had a very hot and dry July too.
Anyway, we finally got some rain and it's cooled down to 86° for the next few days.
Junie, are you having a bbq? I'll take a sandwich please.

I joined in October of 2006. Like almost 16 years ago? My how time does fly. I wanted help with some type of fly in my house plants. It took me several months to learn this was more than a question/ answer site.
I meant BBQ meat...I am roasting chicken and I will add BBQ sauce and bake it on for a bit.

Time does fly. I wonder where many of our past members are?? I picked a large pan of yellow bush beans and I just got finished making pickled mustard pods for Winter, yum. My cucumbers are growing wonderfully as well. I didn't care for all the heat but the garden loved it. I shall have plenty of preserves hopefully.

My part time job is overwhelming me. Since the 4th I've worked 50 hours and 57 minutes. Someone's dad died and I've been helping to fill in. I'm tired.

Glad for your good/well growing garden, Sunny. The more you can put up the better I say. Sheri. Sorry about your full time, part time job. I think on your time off you should look for an actual "part time" job.

Junie, this is the first year that I did not have to set up the hose to water the garden. I shouldn't complain about the rain but I need to get the hay made before the end of the month or it will lose its nutrition.

Thanks for understanding Junie....and listening to me complain again. It is pouring rain out there at the moment. I picked cucumbers and beans last night in the garden....and we had our first vine ripened tomatoes. They are cherry tomatoes, (Sweet 100's).

Junie, I just made the most delicious dip. You take one pound of ground beef, cook it until crumbly then add a large jar of salsa. Put aside. You then cream one block of cream cheese and a small tub of sour cream until blended thick. You put the ground beef mix in the bottom of a baking pan, then layer the cream cheese mixture...then sprinkle with shredded cheddar/mozzerella cheese. Cover with foil and bake in the oven for 20 minutes. You serve it with tortilla chips. I got the recipe from Carey's niece, it is delicious....and fattening. (You can also add taco spice to the ground beef mix when cooking it but my tummy can't take all the spice).

I've had that dip before Sunny. Haven't made it but have eaten it and I agree, it's good and like a meal instead of a dip.
We've had a rather dry season but my garden's done well. We're just now starting to get some days of nice rain instead of just a pop up thunder storm in the afternoons. I do feel for your hay situation Sunny.
As far as my job, I really don't mind working the extra hours because with my local grans in school and Darbi working at school what would I do with all my time. PLUS I get to pick what days I will work and take off when I want CUZ I'm going back to Ginger's in MS the 7th through the 16th. Colt has grandparents day (since he's in the 5th grade this is probably his last one) and Johnny and I never missed one, and I'll get to see him play in 2 ball games. Plus I found some relatively cheap plane tickets. So I'm not complaining.

I am glad things are working out Bestofour.
Junie, just a heads up....provinces here have such a shortage of 'Tylenol and Advil for kids' that it is now going to require a prescription from a doctor. Hoping it doesn't carry over to the South of us.

Sunny, thanks so much for the information. I really hate to think of what the next year will be like

Feel free to send the rain this way. We're surviving but some rain would definitely help.

Bestofour, I have no clue, they are just saying that there is an extreme shortage...you can't find children's fever medication anywhere here now. I have always bought ahead so my grands are o.k. but many other kids will suffer. In fact, any flu med is in short supply as well.

Same here weather-wise Sunny. These last few days seem like early fall to me.
At one time was there a person named Sherri from AZ or CO who would sign in once in a while and tell us about herself and grand children or did I dream that?

They are nasty looking and multiply quickly...the sad thing is that they just started around here about 5 years ago.
I need to mow the lawn if it can dry enough this afternoon.

I am not sure about that Junie, they are cutting the petunia flowers off before they even bloom in my flower pots. I even tried an organic dust powder that I bought for my pots and such....it definitely does not work at all. I hate to use poison but I might do it next year anyway.

at Topsail Island, NC, and just happened to pass by an open air market where Carol Ann Ross had a booth set up. I had never heard of her books but since she’s a local author I bought the first in her A Murder By the Sea series titled Waterlogged. I think it’s a cozy but that’s ok with me. 😎
I didn’t realize ear wigs hurt plants.

I have never heard of Carol Ann Ross. I read cozy mysteries..let me know if you think the book is worth it.
Thanks for telling us about the earwigs. See, one cannot believe everything they read on the internet.

I love a good book.
Heavy rain for today, they even have travel advisories posted. It will be a good baking day.

Sheri: I always got those very short soda boxes, put news paper in the bottoms and then put my dug up potatoes in them by size, and so the potatoes did not touch . Then I kept them in my basement. They kept until I used them all...which was usually January And oh, I sat them out on my picnic table for one day after I dug them up to make sure I did not put damp potatoes into the basement Good Night to you all.

My potatoes are just starting to die back here Bestofour, I can't wait to dig them up. I dry mine on cardboard in a dark shed for a few days, then place them in 'breathable burlap type bags'. I picked the biggest green pepper I have ever grown yesterday...it had a touch of sun scald so I needed to get it before an insect did.

I'm here Junie. It's raining here today too but we very much need it. I'm going to Ginger's Wednesday for 2 weeks. I'm still mad that they moved so far away but they don't care I usually go to her house for Thanksgiving but not sure what will happen this year because if Chris's parents come I don't want to stay more than a day or two in a house full of people and it's a long way to fly for just a day or two.

I am here as well, I have been so busy this past week. Have a fun trip Bestofour. I'd plan the trip for the time prior to Thanksgiving so that I could leave the day after.
