Lost and Found: August 2010
http://lostandfoundlisas.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 26, 2010. I Am Afraid to Look in My Compost Bin! I had good intentions. I recycle everything I can and try to reduce my use of plastics and excess packaging. Composting seemed like a good idea. Then I forgot all about it. I got the idea for my compost bin from this link:. Http:/ dinnergarden.blogspot.com/2009/05/dinner-garden-learns-to-compost.html. It is August now and the bin is buried under the rubble in the garage somewhere. Yeah, that's it. I am sure I will do better next year.

Sunday, October 31, 2010. Spooky Mutant Root Vegetables! Happy Halloween from my spooooky garden! The garden was mostly a bust this year, we can just call it a. This is what happens when you dump a bunch of carrot seeds in a small patch and don't thin them properly. I swear I. Thin them, but apparently not enough. I wonder if this thing let out a blood curdling scream when it was pulled from the ground? My husband pulled this out when he was cleaning up the old dead plants and weeds that grew up.).

Wednesday, July 21, 2010. A Salad Bar for Deer? This morning I took advantage of the slightly cooler weather to tend my very-neglected garden. Had eaten all my tomatoes and chewed the plant down to about half it's height a few weeks ago. This morning I found proof of the culprit- DEER! A perfect hoof-print right next to my carrots, whose tops have been nibbled down quite a bit. I have tons of flowers, so perhaps I will get something out of that. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Wednesday, October 6, 2010. More Budget-Busters I Really Don't Miss (Well, Usually). My last post was about some household items that I either stopped buying or drastically cut back on to save money and (in some cases) do my little part to save the environment. This week I have a few more items that I have cut back on or eliminated from our budget. In some cases it has been a few. Sweet (and wonderful, ha ha) it is almost too sweet. 2 Combo Meals at Fast Food Restaurants. We do not eat fast food often bu...

Tuesday, October 12, 2010. It's Time to Stock Up on Baking Essentials. We're getting close to that time of year again. you know what I'm talking about. The holidays are (gasp! The best way to store flour so that it doesn't get buggy is to place the flour in a plastic bag and then freeze it. If you are making any yeast-based baked goods, remember to bring the flour to room temperature before starting the recipe, or the cold flour will kill the yeast. Leavening agents like baking powder and baking soda los...

Friday, February 26, 2010. Never Underestimate the Power of a Good Book. I have one child that is in elementary school. This child is intelligent (did you expect me to say anything else? Seeking information, I sat and talked to one of my neighbors (a teacher) for over an hour about the situation. I shared my frustrations. She listened. I asked for help, fully expecting to hear things about flash cards and practice tests. Instead, this was the first bit of advice my neighbor offered:. Maybe my child under...
