The barn has some serious history, love it!

Glad you got to rant about the event here and at least release some of the energy. Geeze, I feel for you and dang, now I can smell mouse shit, lmao!

What an interesting Gaelic story. Let's hope the Masonry woodshed doesn't run out on you. Cool photo from the barn loft. I bet that barn could tell a lot of stories from its hay day back when. There is

I don't think there is anything that hasn't gone up by a lot. Funny how nothing ever comes down though. Our water has always been quarterly here and last year rates went up but I couldn't tell you how

Thanks, Pam I still have another 25 lbs. to reach for, hopefully by planting time this spring. Now, I have to start strengthening my leg muscles. I just have to do it and stop procrastinating. lol

Good for Jamie, I have not had them with tomato sauce yet, now I will have to try them that way.

Ya gotta love them Avocados!

I'm happy that there are places for the elephants to live a quieter life than logging. I agree, it would be nice to know all aspects of their lives, but seeing them as you did, seems like they are well

Thank you!

Oh, spinach gnocchi sounds delicious. I would love to make gnudi. ♥

Pam, 1 T. of Lemon juice per pint jar when canning. Same as with tomatoes. I did not make that clear, sorry.

Same to you, this has been a doozy of a month. We have had over 24" so far. Stay warm.

I love them and hope you find more someday.

As always, your photography awes me. So beautiful!

My mouth is watering just seeing the pasta. ♥

You would be right! It is snowing today again, and I wonder when it will stop. It is getting very deep.

It sure has, Jay. I can't remember the last time we had this much snow and deep cold. It's still snowing today too. Hope you are not getting all this weather too much.

Glad you got to do the elderberries. Those old chimes are so cool, and I bet they sound awesome too. It's snowing again today and heavily. Sigh....

I do a lot of tomato sauces too, but this time it was hot sauce since we love it so.
