This quote just makes no sense. My dog does not work. But she has 3 beds in two houses, gets his best meals and drink delivered in her bowls, which are not cleaned by herself, she shits in the garden not caring about her shit, vet is being paid for.

I would love to "work" like a dog.

Good morning nostr, sittin on the patio with my coffee this morning, just enjoying the coolness after yet another night of loud storms. We got another inch and a half of rain, so i'll be getting even farther behind on mowing. Oh well.

We'll be heading to church this morning, then i might see if i can plant a few more starts that i found at the farmers market. Yall have a great Sunday, enjoy your coffee, and remember that today is a gift. #coffeechain #grownostr #homesteading

Sepp Holzer said to do it. This is a pear tree that grew from a branch I used as a row marker two springs ago. I didn't get it transplanted over the winter (thanks appendix) and it was growing in the bed I'm going to have tomatoes in.

Anyhow. I dug it out, pruned about 1/2 off the top due to root damage digging it up, planted it at the edge of a woods area, and stripped every single leaf off - which Holzer says (and it makes sense) cuts down on transplant stress. We'll see how this works.

It's over 🙂

I've lived here in #Texas for almost three decades, and this year is the first time I've ever seen this particular native wildflower. It's called Blue Curls (Phacelia congesta). Sometimes called Caterpillars or Fiddleneck for the way the flowers grow in neat little curls that unfurl over time as the flowers bloom in sequence. Bees seem to love it, so I'm planning on collecting some seeds from this roadside patch I found and establishing it in my pasture somewhere.

Wow. Like a snow leopard! That N.America species?

Man these girls grew fast, seems like yesterday they were baby peeps in my hand, now they are as big as a standard hen, but only half grown.

About time to make a salad #garden

Gm. Harvesting a bed of spinach while listening to all the migrant birds that showed up last night. Cape May and black and white warblers, scarlet tanager and a yellow throated vireo all new this morning. Have a wonderful spring day.

Good morning all you beautiful #nostriches new and old. Happy #coffeechain and enjoy my morning #birdstr with this Baltimore Oriole in mid-flight #gm #birdcam #grownostr

Nice bed of spinach! I wish I could grow spinach without row covers we have a nasty leaf miners problem in our area.

Nettle Omelettes? Just like that?

That doesn’t sound bad.
