And I liked shaping the edge of the crust, doing that thing with your knuckles, you know? Now I just eat the fruit and skip the pastry. No, that's not the same as eating pie... But baked apples are good.Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06318174928862120631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-54893371716218485072014-02-20T23:48:57.051-05:002014-02-20T23:48:57.051-05:00If you do raised beds at some point, raise 'em...If you do raised beds at some point, raise 'em up high. <br />I have the coolest el cheapo thing for making pie crust-- it's a plastic circle with a zipper and you put your ball of dough inside then close the cover and zip it shut, then roll your dough out into a perfect circle. This thing contains all the mess-- the flour, the bits of dough. The dough does not stick to the rolling pin or the surface. Miracle. I will send you one if you want one!!!<br />And yes, ask me for advice anytime!

Even as to the Bonzai vegetables. <br />Sigh. <br />Still- it's such a joy to eat from it.<br /><br />Heartinhand- I will do that!<br /><br />Beth Coyote- Oh, I used to do the peat cups. Not any more. I just buy the plants or plant from seed. I have a feeling you're far more serious about it than I am. <br /><br />Ellen- When we move to Apalachicola, all of my gardening is going to be done in pots. I am looking forward to that. <br />Nothing breaks my heart like losing my tomatoes to critters and bugs and other unidentifiable stuff. And it happens every year.<br /><br />Lisa- They can tear a garden up. <br /><br />Angella- I swear- it's like you live on a different planet.

The snow is still inches deep on the ground here, and the balmy high 40s temperature today only melts the edges and makes everything slushy and gunmetal grey like the sky. I don't mind it at all. It's a great excuse to stay indoors, which I could do happily for days at a stretch, but of course, life calls.

They have survived and the darn gophers can't get them! I love going out and picking them from the vine...the warmth they hold from a day in the sun. I can't wait to get some pots going. I've never planted potatoes but we have neighbors who did. Our cats at the time loved to poo there so they put wire on top to discourage that. Thankfully they still were our friends too. As for the face cream...well you gave me my chuckle for the morning ...thank you very much!

At least I put seeds in my little peat pots. <br /><br />I 'amend' the soil in the most half-assed way. My garden is really magnificent and I did most of the work. Now I'm just...lazy. The tulips are coming up and the camilla has a few blooms. Still drear here. 80 degrees? Unimaginable. <br /><br />XXXXX Bethbeth coyotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04671290135595711572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-11866198857849127472014-02-20T11:44:42.589-05:002014-02-20T11:44:42.589-05:00We just got 10 cm of new snow yesterday.

We should be planting last week. And my garden is in shade by 3 PM. And the stuff I grow is about 1/3 the size of the stuff my neighbor grows. And I swear, there is a section of my garden that won't grow anything but it all looks like the same dirt no matter how much compost we add or fertilizer, nothing wants to grow there. Wtf is up with that. But I love being able to go out and pick my dinner.ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-32019323281231838702014-02-20T09:54:47.877-05:002014-02-20T09:54:47.877-05:00I just love this!
