Need some fresh produce? Organic duck eggs? Maybe Spot wants some organic chicken jerky to munch on while you browse gluten-free bread? Well, hop in the car and head north to the Texas Farmers Market.

The heat sucks. I mean whatever, this is what anyone living in Texas expects. It’s not so much the temperature, but the humidity that sets me on edge. This didn’t stop me, however. Threw on a cotton dress

A few weeks ago, I got together with a good friend of mine, Lorraine or Momma-san as I lovingly call her, to learn how to can pickles. We used a basic pickle salt mix bag and canned pickles as well as
I’m the type of person that freaks the heck out when I don’t notice immediate progress. It’s because of my inability to be patient that makes gardening very frustrating to me. If you’re going through this
