New Knee, Old Knee – Old Nose, New Nose
The new knee is 8 years old today. Not too new anymore but 60 years newer than the other one. I appreciate it every day. No regrets. Today I wish for a new nose or for the old one to heal up fast. Genetics can get you no matter how healthy you are or how…

For the Book – Stuffed Pepper Casserole
The blog is to record real life stories from our life to be included in the book. A classic from last year. The funny thing is I have loads of bell peppers and was thinking it was time for the Stuffed Pepper Casserole again. Kathy Duty Harris September 11, 2023 I am never sure why but I…

Standardized Testing
First, just let me say my 50th High School Class Reunion is coming up next month. That statement should set the timeframe for this story. Believe it or not, we had testing back in the old days. I am pretty sure we took them in the odd years, like 3, 5, etc. I don’t remember…

Funny Memory from Facebook
On this day 4 years ago. The funny part is I discussed this with the rooster just yesterday. I was reminding him how he and Precious fought off the hawk and now he is scared of his own shadow and lets the other roosters bully him. My dear Precious is no longer with us but…

Poultry farming is the form of animal husbandry which raises domesticated birds such as chickens, ducks, turkeys and geese to produce meat or eggs for food. Food? These animals are not food unless you count food for hawks, raccoons, bears, etc. Eggs, maybe if they decide to lay eggs. They only lay when they want to…

Night Blooming Cereus – Queen of the Night
The first bloom of the season opened tonight. I did set an alarm to remind me to look. It bloomed the last two summers. This year it has 9 more buds. A friend shared a cutting with me a few years ago. She has grown a lot each year and has been repotted regularly. She…

Just Cause
Lol! I just re-read that title and realized everyone will think this post is about Gene finally killing me and his defense. Believe me when I tell you it will be justifiable homicide. Because I’m an old Southern woman and we’re supposed to wear funny looking hats and ugly clothes and grow vegetables in the…
