And it does not get as cold here as it does where you are-seldom below 16-20 degrees at night, so heat lamps or small electric heaters are adequate for young chicks/ducks in even a detached garage, as lo9ng as they are in a walled container so drafts don’t reach them.
A neighbor across the road now has some ducks-I heard them quacking, and saw them wandering by his fence in front when I drove out of the driveway yesterday-looks like they are to be self-propelled lawn ornaments, because they are mallards and other fancy-colored ones-not the ordinary brown or white ducks...
Still raining on and off here. Temps dropped into the low 60s.
It is drizzling now and then with a little breeze from the north and has dropped to 62-I went at the nearest butcher shop yesterday-right near the ranch store-and got some local free range beef-I just lighted the grill to cook a nice, rare steak and I have some fresh spinach to steam-yum...
That should say-”I was at”...
That sounds good, except for the spinach part. ;)
I like mid 60’s to low 80’s.
Yes it’s just you : )
I like just about all fresh veggies, either raw or lightly steamed. I think the reason a lot of people don’t like veggies is because the way most people cook veggies is to throw them into boiling water till they are limp and tasteless-and pour the water out along with most of the nutrients that were in the vegetables. What is left is no different from what comes in a can-just with less salt. I won’t touch veggies that have been cooked like that unless I’m starving...
That is ideal, but it only happens here for a very short time in the Spring and Fall...
One of my favorite food sins is fried okra, but I don’t cook it at home-I don’t fry anything...
Same here in Alabama.
District tells teachers to call students 'purple penguins' instead of 'girls and boys'
Where is everybody this morning? Did the school get moved while I was absent?
Probably a federal holiday thing.
Does homework submitted late not get a review?
A+++ I think we need to rid our schools of leftist idiots. It’s our only hope.
I figure everybody watched the Steelers yesterday and still has their heads in the oven.
Nah, some of us watched the Cowboys dismantle the Seahags.
That was mildly interesting, as was the OT of the Bengals game before it.
There is a lot of bad football being played in the NFL. Do you ever remember so many blowouts as there have been this year?
In spite of the in-game altercations, there seemed to be no bad feelings between players at the end.
ooops, i went shopping : )
