Since I'm missing my spleen, my immune system is compromised anyway. I try to remember to take my vitamin D...

You better remember, cause you’re playing with 2 strikes against you because of the missing spleen.

Then, there’s the fact he has only one kidney.
Got some Roma tomato seedlings sprouted. The Serrano pepper seeds are not popping up real well— maybe they like it warmer than on my east window sill. Have to rake up the oak leaves out back (again) then mulch them with the mower. My cilantro is doing ok under the glass outside. Going to try some swiss chard again—haven’t planted any since many, many moons ago. I’m in /johnny’s area here in DFW and we can really use some rains again like he mentioned.
When you get a chance, please read my post to you on the other thread about the book I got that is like yours except they revised it for this edition. I listed the chapters. Would like you know if they are different from yours.
Hello Bon, your orchid looks like a Cymbidium . . . it’s beautiful!
—chicken soup—
Oh, I thought it was loaded tater soup. Oh well, we’re eating the tater soup again tonight anyway!
I make my tater soup with chicken broth, so it’s still a sort of chicken soup.LOL
They look terrified, don't they?
This is Gracie, 5mo 3days ago, with her first big girl hair doo, yesterday.
Oh jeez. It all adds up to making it harder for the body to do it’s thing.
—Tea, honey, lemon and chicken soup are all purpose cures.—
I grew up thinking it was whiskey, honey, and lemon. LOL
I still have an un-opened bottle of my dad’s Seagram 7. I leave it as a tribute to him.
We have oak leaves all around too. Neighbors here rake them in the fall and burn them. We just leave them alone till spring and then rake them into one big compost pile.
Other wise we’d be raking all the time. They don’t ever seem to drop all at once, just a bunch at a time, just after you rake them up.
I did manage to sweep some off the patio during one of our warm days in January. While it makes the patio look nice, it probably would be better to have left them be. They help when you are walking in snow.
However, when it rains, they are slick, so sometimes I just leave a patch next to the house all the way to the door. Then we are all set for whichever we have.
Did it.
Oh thank you. That is soooo pretty. I love flowers of all sorts. We just don’t grow many ornamentals. Hubby thinks everything you grow should be edible.
I have mostly roses, because they don’t take much effort, and rose hips are useful source of Vitamin C and used in lots of teas.
We’re from the South, chicken broth is the key ingredient in many things that others use water.
So cute! Gracie looks a lot like my youngest daughter’s poodle named Bengie that she had when she was in elementary school-about 30 years ago. He was a really good doggie.
When you took a dose, you felt it all the way down. It worked as well as Turpin hydrate and codeine. I read recently that honey is a natural cough suppressant equal to any found in cough medicine/drops of any medicine on the market.
Chicken broth beats water in almost any recipe that I can think of.
