Getting To Know Earthworms
While transplanting my hostas I noticed earthworms galore! I had never seen so many and my guess is that the hostas give the soil (and worms) good circulation because of their many shoots? I ended up planting an herb garden in place of the hostas and when I...
Squirrels Dug Up and Ate Sunflower Seeds?
Dang squirrels! I have had the same problems! I planted 75 Gladiola bulbs and every one was dug up and eaten! My 75.00 market umbrella eaten, the 200 and something dollar gazebo on my deck had a skylight eaten out of the center! Tablecloth eaten! My Mom told...

I love just using Janes mixed up crazy salt on my ground beef. It is a seasonal with different herbs and spices. I always use this on baked chicken too! YUM-O! You cant get it everywhere but I do find it in the larger supermarkets.
Removing Stains from Vintage Doll Clothes?
My mom swears by biz, it is an oldie but a goodie and I remember her soaking items like that in a basin. I am pretty sure you can find it in a larger supermarket.
Uses for Leftover Fabric Scraps?
One of my favorites is making pot holders with scraps. You can purchace a special material to go in the center that is heat resistant but I use old thick wash cloths and towels instead. I have also made dog toys with them.
