And I have it very bad which leads to misspellings and not seeing mistakes in spelling. I remember No worries on the mistakes... we all make them, but you have to admit that Bloody Marty's was pretty funny 2 1 4

I've grown collards back in PA that I harvested in very late December, a couple days before New Year's. I cooked them up as part of a traditional Low Country New Year's Day meal. They survived frost and some light snow before that last harvest. I've also over wintered spinach that I planted as a fall crop. Mulched the garden bed with chopped straw and leaves in December when the plants went dormant. Once the bed thawed in early March the plants sprouted new leaves and I could begin light harvesting earlier than if I had grown from seed. That was five years ago before I started spending winters in SC with mum. I might see if I can find some spinach seed here to plant as a winter crop. It doesn't get cold enough for the ground to freeze so I think it should work. If I can keep the deer from eating my crop. We're at 14 feet. Edited October 22, 2020 by dughlas 6 1

Popular Post clochette Posted October 22, 2020 Popular Post Posted October 22, 2020 (edited) It's official, almost half the country is under a 9pm-6am curfew starting this saturday for 6 weeks, not just the bigger metropolitan cities. Strangely, Somme - where my apartment is - isn't but all the other departments around are. Good thing I went out with my bff last Saturday! Also Strasburg has canceled its Christmas market. It had only ever happened during WW2... Edited October 22, 2020 by clochette 3 1 3

That's what the prime minister said in his speech. Of course it's not easy, it'll take efforts but they're not that bad but it's necessary. The bait (? I thing that the word) on the short terms is to save Christmas, to not reach the point where a lockdown will be necessary by Christmas time for the mental health but also for the economy. 3 3

Site Administrator Popular Post Valkyrie Posted October 22, 2020 Site Administrator Popular Post Posted October 22, 2020 It's been rainy and dreary here all week, and today is no exception. At least it's fairly warm out. We may even set a record tomorrow! I had my annual physical today. Everything was good for the most part. My doctor is sending me for a sleep study. They also cleaned my ears, since they were pretty occluded with wax. They feel so much better now! And now I won't have to deal with them getting plugged so often. 6

The other stayed and never amounted to much. It was known as the lesser of two weevils. Isnt it a bit early for Christmas cracker jokes? 5
